Enterprise License Expiration
When an Enterprise license expires (or the license key becomes corrupted), TeamCity reverts to working in Professional mode.
This means that certain features will be disabled or have limited functionality and that builds will not run unless a number of stipulations are met. (For details on TeamCity Professional's limitations please see editions).
Feature changes when reverting from Enterprise to Professional
Roles
System and Project Administrators in Enterprise change into Administrators. (TeamCity actually checks to see if the
EDIT_PROJECTpermission is present in the user's account).Project Developers and Agent Managers revert to Users.
Guest users, regardless of how they were configured in Enterprise mode, will only be able to view projects.
(See: Role)
User Authentication
NT and LDAP Authentication will not work in Professional mode. If you were not already using TeamCity's default authentication scheme then up to 20 TeamCity users will need to have new accounts created for them using this scheme.
(See: Authentication Scheme | Authentication Settings)
Restoring Enterprise Mode
After you enter a valid Enterprise license all limitations will be removed and:
Enterprise user roles and permissions are preserved while running in Professional mode and are automatically restored
Users created while working in Professional mode will be assigned the "Default User" settings when switching to Enterprise.
