Some NetMRI appliances may have relatively high device license limits, which are previously sold entitlements to manage a large quantity of network infrastructure devices. If a user then upgrades their system to the NetMRI Release
6.8 or higher, their installed License may exceed the Platform Limit for the NetMRI or Automation Change Manager feature license. This event is called overriding the Platform Limit. This does not affect the appliance or its operation. After the upgrade installation, whether it is browser-based or performed in the command line, the following message appears:
| Wiki Markup |

The number of Licensed Devices in this License exceeds the capacity of this appliance for <managed devices>. The platform limit of <# platform capacity of managed devices> will be overridden with the \[new license limit | existing limit\] (<# new limit>). Please contact customer support if you feel this message is in error. |
In such cases, the Effective limit exceeds the Platform limit for the given feature license. A Platform Overridden message, in red, appears in the Settings Summary page. The user can use all originally purchased device license entitlements.
Note: A warning banner appears on the NetMRI screen only when the number of discovered end hosts, discovered devices or discovered interfaces exceeds the Total Device Limit of the system.
