I have several RPi using Codesys with licence and I could see that my device reboot after 2h.
My device has an external watchdog that reboots the RPi if the PLC shut down.
With a little bash script I logged the status of codesyscontrol service every second until RPi reboot, and my last entry before the reboot is each time 2h and 5min after codesyscontrol start running.
I tried without an external watchdog and the service is exited instead of running, logs below :
● codesyscontrol.service - LSB: Prepares and starts codesyscrontol

I though it was codesyscontrol without licence rebooting every 2h.
Is there something special to do at the licence installation? I followed the same steps as this youtube video : /watch?v=eTr9oO9OAy8

-SD are installed by binary copies of another one
If you copy a licensed CODESYS sd Card,
the steps are to activate the "new" license
-> remove the content of cmact_license
-> restart plc
-> activte the new license
If you do not follow these steps- you'll have a broken license conatiner from the original Pi
sure you could activate a license to the new empty Container - but the license from first Pi stay there and will influcense
the license requests in that way.

Okay, I tried what you said and that was the issue.
Everything works fine now.
Big thanks Edwin!
