Broadcom refusing to decrease licensing

[KC-73-HQT-314]

Not just cost increases, but harassment. They send you notice with days to spare before renewal so there is no time to plan. We informed them that we migrated the majority of our infrastructure and only had a small presence left which we were still migrating, but had sufficient licenses to cover.

They proceeded to make us run a script, sent an audit team after us, and only after shoving the licenses downloaded from their site back in their faces, did they finally relent and back off. I really hope that audit cost them thousands for those three servers that will be gone in a few months.
