Chr license mikrotik12/19/2023 ![]() Trying to purchase a license will give you this error: If you intend to buy a license for this CHR you need to make sure that yhe software-id does not change with every reboot, unforutnately the default setting would results in a new software id after every reboot, this would break the CHR license and you are stuck with 1Mbit. The manual states: CHR system-id is bound to MBR and UUID - but what exactly does it mean? What is it checking on the MBR and UUID (disk UUID or hardware ID etc).Download the mikrotik CHR raw image and unzip it wget ''Ĭraete a new LVM and copy the data from the image lvcreate -L 1G -n chr vg0ĭd if=chr-6.46.1.img of=/dev/vg0/-diskĬreate XEN configuration Generate new UUID With the amount we've spent on licensing we expect it to just work, and not have to keep worrying about system ID's. Is there a definite answer over how CHR figures out what the system ID and the checks it performs to ensure the license is really valid? Nothing has changed with the disk image, nor the system/hardware UUID id the VirtualBox or KVM xml file, so what could cause this? each reboot the system ID is the same and the license just "works".Īfter booting the original image, drag-and-dropping the RouterOS upgrade file to the Files via Winbox and rebooting, again all good, but sometimes, even though the system id is the same, it throws an error stating the system id has already previously used a trial or that there is something wrong with the system id. They have been working fine until it comes to upgrade time. ![]() We purchased over 400 CHR P1 perpetual licenses a few years ago that are used on either VirtualBox/Linux KVM hosts. I have a question about how the CHR system id (for licensing purposes) is *really* generated/checked.
