Free!! SG License File cannot be converted into XG

Why not just apply for a new XG serial number (licence)?

Ian

I already have a SG appliance with a FG license.

Now I just wanted to convert this SG setup into XG firmware. At the stage that asks for SG license file, this error happens.

I am more worried about "FREE" word at the beginning of the error message!! Have I bought a fake license !? 

I don't think the conversion process is recommended as being reliable. You could try asking your reseller/partner to issue you with a new licence to replace your exisiting one for the remaining period.

Hi Ian, it is possible and you can do it.

It has some "restriction on it".

Did you follow the whole process? Did you use the correct myUTM License? 

I saw couple of cases, which had "broken" licenses in the Sophos Backend. This needs to be fixed by us (Sophos). 

This process works for 99% of our customers. So you should let customercare check your license.
