Synopsis licenseremove license
Description Use this command to remove an existing license key from a switch or to deactivate the license key. The existing
license key must be entered exactly as shown by the licenseShow command. License keys are case-sensitive.
When the key has been removed, use the licenseShow command to verify that the key and the associated product
have been uninstalled. You must reboot the switch after removing a license. For a switch that has no licenses
installed, licenseShow displays "No licenses."
Upgradeable licenses, such as slot-based licenses or Universal Time-based licenses cannot be permanently
removed; they remain in the database but are not displayed in the licenseShow output.
