Revoking License Units

By default, Veeam Backup for AWS automatically revokes a license unit from a protected instance if no new restore points have been created by the backup policy during the past 31 days. However, you can manually revoke license units from protected instances — this can be helpful, for example, if you remove a number of instances from a backup policy and do not want to protect them anymore.

To revoke a license unit from a protected instance, do the following:

1. Switch to the Configuration page.
2. Navigate to Licensing > License Usage.
3. Select the instance that you no longer want to protect.
4. Click Revoke License.
5. In the Revoke License window, click Yes to confirm that you want to revoke the license unit.
