Maintenance Expiration

Separate from license validity, the Gantt tracks maintenance status:
StateDescription
Maintenance activeSoftware updates and support are available
Maintenance expiredSoftware continues to work but updates are not available; a maintenance renewal is required for new versions
An expired maintenance period does not disable the Gantt. The software continues to operate, but you cannot install newer versions without renewing maintenance.

License Check Endpoint

The Gantt checks license status at startup by calling a server API endpoint:
PropertyValue
EndpointGET /polarion/gantt/admin/api/license
TimingCalled once at Gantt startup
ResponseReturns license validity, expiry date, and a human-readable message

Multi-Node Deployment

Licenses can be used across multiple Polarion cluster nodes:
ScenarioSupported
Single server deploymentYes
Multi-node clusterYes, same license on all nodes

Extended Evaluation

If you need more than 30 days for evaluation, contact Nextedy to request an extended time-limited license.

Configuration Example

Check the license status from the admin page:
https://your-polarion.example.com/polarion/#/administration/gantt/setup
The license panel appears at the top of the Gantt widget when the license is approaching expiry or has expired. If you see the license panel, contact your administrator or visit the Nextedy support portal.
