Upgrading the product license

Upgrading the product license
If you are installing the product for the first time, the product is licensed during the
installation process. Skip this section and go to
Installing VirusScan Enterprise on
page 14 .
If you are installing a licensed version over an evaluation version of VirusScan
Enterprise, you must upgrade the license. The license does not automatically upgrade
itself from an evaluation version.
Use one of these methods to upgrade an evaluation version of VirusScan Enterprise to
a licensed version:
„ Use McAfee Installation Designer to upgrade the license. Refer to the McAfee
Installation Designer Product Guide for specific details.
„ Remove the evaluation version of the product and install the licensed version.
Caution
Perform the license upgrade before the evaluation period expires. If you do not, the
scanning and updating functions stop until you replace the evaluation version with a
licensed version of the product.
Caution
Removing the evaluation version causes you to lose all of the configured settings from
that installation. This method is only recommended if you cannot use McAfee
Installation Designer to upgrade the license.
