Backup jobs for plugins fail with error "license has expired"

When a Plug-in is installed it must also be licensed to the appropriate client.

When licensing a plugin:

• If you have a cluster, such as Exchange, and are using a NetVault Virtual Client to backup the entire cluster the license key is applied to the NetVault Server
• If you have a stand-alone server the license key for the plugin is applied to the client running the plugin.
• If you have a NetVault Capacity license then the plugin keys may not be tied to a MacineID.
• If you do NOT have a Capacity license key then plugin keys will be tied to a MachineID.

Please see this KB on how to obtain the correct licenses.
