Expired license results in no obvious warning

FYI - My license for VMware Server 2 expired, but I did not know this. I thought my VMs were completely farked. Turns out a quick look at one of their log files revealed the following:

 

Dec 09 22:12:28.704: vmx| http://msg.License.product.expired This product has expired.

Dec 09 22:12:28.704: vmx| Make sure that your computer's date and time are set correctly.

Dec 09 22:12:28.704: vmx| There is a more recent version available at the VMware Web site: "http://vmware.com/info?id=4".

Dec 09 22:12:28.704: vmx| -


Dec 09 22:12:28.705: vmx| Module License power on failed.

Dec 09 22:12:28.705: vmx| VMX_PowerOn: ModuleTable_PowerOn = 0

Dec 09 22:12:28.708: vmx| Transitioned vmx/execState/val to poweredOff

 

It would have been nice for the web interface to let me know that the product was expired. I guess I never installed the GA version.
