What RevokeSocketLicense does on Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server
AI agents call RevokeSocketLicense to permanently remove resources in Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why RevokeSocketLicense is rated Critical
Revoking a socket license is a destructive, non-trivial action that removes the license entitlement from a host. This cannot be trivially undone (re-assigning requires available license seats) and could immediately disable backup/replication capabilities on the affected host, causing significant operational impact. It ranks above Write because the action is not easily reversible.
From the tool's definition 'Revoke a socket license from a specific host' — revoking a license removes an assigned entitlement irreversibly from a host, disabling its licensed functionality.
