Restore the Master Image
The following procedure assumes that you have saved a copy of each
workstation’s AdLM folder (and Product Licenses folder, if present) to either
another workstation or a disc before you reformat the workstation.
To restore a product using a master image
1 Exit the application. Do not run the application again until after you
have completed this procedure.
2 In Windows Explorer, copy the AdLM folder from the appropriate path
shown below to a location other than the disc that will be restored.
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\FLEXnet
3 Reformat the workstation and restore the master image.
NOTE Do not perform a low-level format of the hard drive.
4 Copy the AdLM folder that you created in step 2 to its original workstation
and location on that workstation.
NOTE When you restore the disc image, any files that were altered are put back
in their original state and ready to use again. The license files are preserved, and
no reactivation of products is necessary.
Clean a Master System and Restore the Operating System
If you have already run Maya on the master computer, the master computer
should be properly cleaned first.
To clean a master computer and restore the operating system
1 Clean the hard drive, including the boot sector.
For example, if you use Norton’s GDISK utility, use the following
command:
gdisk 1 /diskwipe
Where 1 is the hard disk that is being wiped.
NOTE If you use a utility other than Norton Ghost, make sure that it cleans
the boot sector; otherwise, you will not be able to activate Autodesk products.
