Should the primary license server become unavailable, the emulator tries to connect to the backup license server. If this succeeds, the emulator continues to run without interruption. If no connection to a valid license can be established within 2 hours (default for general VE license mode) or 24 hours (default for AutoVE mode)the grace period, after the loss of the license has been detected, the emulator will stop. The grace period is defined on the license. Check the license content for the actual value configured (default for new licenses is 24 hours, but the actual configuration may be different).
Please note: If you do not have a valid backup license and the primary license server is unavailable for more than the grace period, make sure to shut down the guest operating system cleanly before the end of the grace period. Failure to do so may cause data loss or corruption.
If the primary license server becomes available again after the emulator has switched to the backup server, the emulator will automatically switch back to the primary server to avoid unnecessary depletion of the backup license runtime hours in VE license server mode.

Log Files
Log files provide important information about the operation of the license server and the Charon emulator software. In case of problems, this is the first place to check.

Please note: The output shows a 2 hour grace period. The grace period implementation and defaults changed several times. In Since VE versions before version 4.1.21, the grace period was 24 hours. It was shortened to two hours after the introduction of the backup license server feature in 4.1.19. Since version 1version 1.1.12, the grace period is determined by the corresponding license parameter (please check the license content for the value configured on your license). If a valid license has not become available before the end of the grace period, the emulator will be stopped.

Charon-AXP/VAX Emulator Log Files
The default location for the Charon-AXP/VAX emulator log files on Linux (Linux is required for VE licensing): if the setting of the template configuration is used, the default is the directory from which the emulator instance was started.
The name and location can be influenced via the configuration file.
By default log file name is <model-name>.log.
