Symantec recommends that you back up your license files. Backing up the license
files preserves the license files in case the database or the console computer's
hard disk is damaged.
Your license files are located in the directory where you saved the files. If you
misplaced the license files, you can download the files from the Symantec Licensing
Portal Web site.
See Licensing Symantec Endpoint Protection"
To back up your license files
Using Windows, copy the .slf license files from the directory where you saved
the files to another computer of your choice.
See your company's procedure for backing up files.
Rule
A Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business
Edition license applies to the Symantec Endpoint
Protection Small Business Edition clients. For
instance, in a network with 50 endpoints, the
license must provide for a minimum of 50 seats.
Instances of the Symantec Endpoint Protection
Manager do not require a license.
Licensing seats apply regardless of platform. For
instance, the license makes no distinction between
a computer that uses Windows and one that uses
Mac OS-X.
License seats apply equally across product
versions. For instance, a license covers
installations where version 11.x and 12.x clients
are both deployed within the same site.
