This entire case if (unfortunately) pretty similar to [Request for Elastic Security Free Trial Extension for SOC PoC Internship Project](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/request-for-elastic-security-free-trial-extension-for-soc-poc-internship-project/386259)

There's no great solution to this right now but let me see if we can figure something out.

In the meantime, figuring out an automated way to recreate the environment with a new trial is probably the safest bet.

PS: If you do a full snapshot restore with the cluster metadata, you are IMO not able to do another trial (on the same major version). Haven't tested it in a while but I think that trial state is kept in the metadata.
