Managing server licenses

From the Replication Console, you can manage your server activation codes. The
activation code is the Storage Mirroring Replicate license which is required on every
Storage Mirroring Replicate server. The activation code is a 24 character, alpha-numeric
code. You can change your activation code without reinstalling, if your license changes.
There are different licenses available.

Evaluation—An evaluation license has an expiration date built into the activation
code. When the license expires, the software will no longer function. The same
evaluation licenses can be used on multiple machines on a network.

Single—A single license is available on a per-machine basis. Each server is
required to have a unique license whether it is functioning as a source, target, or
both. A single license can only be used on one server on a network.

Site—A site license is available to register every machine with the same license.
This license is designed to be used on multiple servers on a network.
