Hi Misi,

We have already moved to a different ITSM Tool.  The licensing completes by
Dec 2018 and we have already stopped using the tool. We want only the
read-only archival data as per the company data retention policy.  We would
remove all the paid licenses and hold only the demo license for retrieving
the archived data. I remember when I worked for other companies they used
to have the Remedy Server running in a read only mode with the demo license
in place for pulling archived data.
Just wanted to confirm/understand whether this policy with BMC is still
valid or not.

Regards,
Sriram.
