Explanation
This change in hypervisor can cause the MAC address of the network interface to change, which in turn can cause the SAP license to be invalid. This is because the SAP license is tied to the MAC address of the network interface. To resolve the issue, the company should contact SAP to obtain a new license key that is valid for the new MAC address. https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/2591601
