For virtualized servers, the server's Host Name, IP Address and Use DHCP settings are used to generate the server's unique Host PLDS ID used for licensing. Changing any of those values will change the ID. If that ID has been used to generate local (nodal) PLDS licenses, those licenses become invalid. This does not affect WebLM (centralized) PLDS licenses.
