# License Agreement

After you install Veeam Agent for Linux, you must accept terms of the product license agreement and license agreements for third-party components operating as part of the product. Until you accept the license agreements, you will not be able to perform backup and data recovery tasks with the Veeam Agent control panel and command line interface.

License agreements are located in the `/usr/share/doc/veeam` directory of the machine where you installed the product.

The process of accepting license agreements differs depending on the way you work with Veeam Agent — using the control panel or command line interface.

- When you launch the Veeam Agent for Linux control panel for the first time, Veeam Agent prompts you to accept the license agreements at the **Agreements** step of the initial setup wizard. To learn more, see [Accept License Agreements](val_first_steps_agreement.md).
- When you run a Veeam Agent for Linux command, for example, `veeamconfig repository create`, Veeam Agent prompts you to accept license agreements. To accept the license agreement, type `y` or `yes` in the command prompt and press [Enter].

  Alternatively, you can accept license agreements using the dedicated commands. To learn more, see [Accepting License Agreements](license_manage_cmd_accept.md).
