Step 5. Provide License File

At the License step of the wizard, specify what license you want to install for Veeam Backup & Replication. You can leave the license file used in the previous version of Veeam Backup & Replication or install a new one.

To install a license, you have 2 options to choose from:

  • Browse your local server or network locations for a license file:
  1. Click Browse license file.
  2. Select a valid license file for Veeam Backup & Replication.
  • Select a license from your account at the Veeam web-site:
  1. Click Sign in with Veeam.
  2. Enter your credentials for accessing the Veeam web-site and click Sign in.
  3. Select one of the available licenses and click Install selected license.

To install new licenses automatically when you renew or expand your contract, select the Update license automatically check box. If you enable the automatic license update, and therefore enable usage reporting, you will double the number of workloads by which you can exceed your installed license. For more information, see Exceeding License Limit.
