Obtaining VCS license keys

This product includes a License Key certificate. The certificate specifies the product
keys and the number of product licenses purchased. A single key lets you install
the product on the number and type of systems for which you purchased the
license. A key may enable the operation of more products than are specified on
the certificate. However, you are legally limited to the number of product licenses
purchased. The product installation procedure describes how to activate the key.

To register and receive a software license key, go to the Symantec Licensing Portal
at the following location:

https://licensing.symantec.com

Make sure you have your Software Product License document. You need
information in this document to retrieve and manage license keys for your
Symantec product. After you receive the license key, you can install the product.

Click the Help link at this site to access the License Portal User Guide and FAQ.
