Installation Of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 - ACRONIS BACKUP AND RECOVERY 10 ADVANCED SERVER VIRTUAL EDITION - INSTALLATION UPDATE 3 Installation Manual

Revoking licenses
Revoking makes used licenses available again. You may need it when:

A managed machine is taken out of service permanently.
Revoke the license from the machine either before or after taking out the machine.

A network card is replaced on a managed machine.
Replacing a network card on a machine normally results in changing the MAC address and thus
the agent on this machine becomes inoperable. Revoke the license from the machine either
before or after replacing a network card. Once the machine is turned on, the agent accesses the
license server and acquires any of the available licenses automatically. Thus the agent becomes
fully operable.
To revoke a license:
1. In the Available licenses view, select the product
2. Click View usage info on the sidebar
3. Select the host from which you wish to revoke the license (see the Host name column)
4. Click Revoke license on the sidebar.
When an agent is uninstalled, its license is revoked from the license server if the license server is
accessible at the time of uninstallation. This is the case for all agents except for Acronis Backup &
Recovery 10 Agent for ESX/ESXi.
