License will expire on [Thursday, December 24, 2015]. If you have a new license, please update it.
Otherwise, please reach out to your support contact.
Commercial plugins operate with reduced functionality on license expiration:
- marvel
- The agent will stop collecting cluster and indices metrics

Hi Raghu,
What versions are you running? Are you able to upgrade to the latest Elasticsearch 2.1 and Marvel 2.1?
These exceptions should not prevent Marvel from operating, and should not cause other issues in your system.
Thanks,
Steve
