Evaluation lab kit downloads & expirations
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-mem-evaluation-lab-kit
The MEM eval lab kit recently got updated with a new expiration of May 2, 2021. However I had downloaded it at the beginning of February and its expiration date then was *really* close at Feb 7, 2021. I have a few questions about its expiration.
First, what exactly happens when it expires? It's now a few days past the previous Feb 7th expiration date and it still 'appears' to be working. How long do I have? What breaks and when?
Depending on the answers above, is there any migration/upgrade path to a newer lab kit from an older one? Or anything salvageable from an older lab kit... like the client VMs?
Is it possible I can rename all the older lab kit VMs within Hyper-V, install the new lab kit, and jump back and forth between the different lab kit versions?
thanks!
