Sometimes there , it may be the need necessary to remove a license from a VE License Server.

Please note:

...

.

There are two several ways to remove an existing license:

  • On a running VE license server:
    1. If a new V2C file
    (that is,
    1. with a
    new
    1. license
    )
    1. update is installed on the license server, the old license will be removed. If a completely new license (e.g., different license ID / different license owner) is to be installed, the old license must be manually removed (see point 2) and a new fingerprint must created.
    2. If you initiate a license transfer (c2v -t <file-name>) on a license server, the installed license will be invalidated. See also Transferring a License to Another Server.
  • Deinstalling the license server software. After reinstalling the license server software, the old V2C file can be imported to re-install the license (the fingerprint of the host is not changed by deinstalling and reinstalling the VE license server software).
  • Removing the directory /opt/license-server .
