If you have not saved the running configurations for the Admin and user contexts to a remote server,

enter n. Go to Step
If you saved the running configurations for the Admin and user contexts to a remote server, enter y.
During the license removal, the ACE removes the user context configurations from the Admin running
configuration, causing the deletion of all user contexts including their running and startup
configurations.
Display the current number of supported contexts on the ACE by entering the show license status
Step 4
command in Exec mode of the Admin context.
Determine which contexts you want to keep in the Admin running configuration. Using a text editor,
Step 5
manually remove the extra context configurations from the Admin running configuration on the remote
server.
If the Admin running configuration contains more contexts than what the ACE supports and you copy
this configuration to the ACE, the ACE rejects contexts that exceed the supported limit. For example, if
the running configuration contains 20 contexts, when you remove the license, the ACE supports five
contexts. If you attempt to copy the configuration with all 20 contexts, the ACE allows the first five
contexts, fails the remaining contexts, and displays error messages on the console.
Note
Retrieve the modified Admin running configuration from the remote server. For example, to copy the
Step 6
R-CONFIG-ADM Admin running configuration from the TFTP server, enter:
host1/Admin# copy tftp://192.168.1.2/R-CONFIG-ADM running-config
Copy the Admin running configuration to the startup-configuration file. For example, enter:
Step 7
host1/Admin# copy running-config startup-config
