Moved Pfsense from hardware to VM - No Plus
-
The NDI on the VM will be different so the Plus sub you had for the hardware is not valid there.
-
I take it the license cant be transferred to the VM even though I have a license on the old PC?
-
Send me the NDI in chat and I'll check it
-
Same here in case of replacing the APU board by a newer one and restoring the backup file.... no Plus now !?
-
That's disappointing, I was planning on moving my pf install to another bare metal machine as the current has begun having issues.
I haven't had the time yet to try and "activate" the Plus upgrade, and wasn't planning to until the switch out was complete, knowing I can't may complicate matters..
Will the configuration backup from Plus load properly on community edition?

For me it was working without issues (latest CE version).

Might want to explore the several conversion utilities available on the interwebs. A fun(?) exercise anyway. And, yes, I use Bing!

Depends on version, see https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/backup/restore.html#backup-compatibility and the linked table.

Hi Stephenw10,
I have sent you code.

Got around this morning to contacting support about the change in NDI from the "repair".
Essentially told to pound sand with the Plus upgrade.. So I guess grandfathering in the Plus for homelab is not a thing anymore. :(
That's too bad.
