Note: If this is set to No, there is a different issue involved. Contact Dell Technologies Support.

 

  1. Set config auditing to disabled temporarily:
powerscale-3# isi audit settings global modify --config-auditing-enabled=false
  1. Re-apply the license, and then enable it:
powerscale-3# isi audit settings global modify --config-auditing-enabled=true
