License management and activation

• License management—You can manage your Double-Take licenses through the license inventory feature in the Double-Take Console. Ideally, you should select one machine in your organization where you want to maintain the license inventory because the license inventory does not communicate between machines.

  From the license inventory, you can add and remove Double-Take licenses manually. You can import and export a Double-Take license file to handle groups of licenses. You can also activate the licenses in your inventory. See Managing the Double-Take license inventory for details on using the license inventory.

• Activation—There are different license types for different server types. Most likely, you will have one license with multiple quantities that will be used on your source servers. Once a source license is activated, you will have 60 days to complete your migration. You will also have another license which can be shared among your targets. You can use the license inventory to activate multiple licenses at once time, or you can activate your licenses one at a time on a per server basis.
