Hi
I have upgraded to ELK 5 .
Sorry - was posted without finishing write up.
I have installed ELK 5.0 and XPack. However I couldn't find the trail license (30 days evaluation) for XPack and hence couldn't even try the Reporting, Security..etc.
Please suggest how can I use the XPack trail.
Thanks
Venkatesh

It's not clear what you are after here, can you rephrase.

It seems the X-Pack trail license is not working as I had already installed Shield previously whose trail license is already expired.
Kindly suggest how can I remove the Shield license and continue with X-Pack trail license.

If I understand correctly, the trial license for our commercial products in your cluster running 2.x expired and you have upgraded this cluster to 5.0 and want to try out x-pack, is that correct? If so, please contact [info@elastic.co](mailto:info@elastic.co) with your information and request for a trial license extension to try out x-pack.
