A valid product key is required to install Industry 8. Evaluation images that are successfully activated with a 180-day evaluation product key will expire at the end of their evaluation period and cannot be reactivated or upgraded. If a device is not activated and a grace period is not in effect, that device will enter a notification state and will start to exhibit different behavior. The behavior of a device in a notification state is determined by the type of product key installed.
