About Veritas product licensing

You have the option to install Veritas products without a license key. Installation

without a license does not eliminate the need to obtain a license. A software license

is a legal instrument governing the usage or redistribution of copyright protected

software. The administrator and company representatives must ensure that a

server or cluster is entitled to the license level for the products installed. Symantec

reserves the right to ensure entitlement and compliance through auditing.

If you encounter problems while licensing this product, visit the Symantec

licensing support website.

The Veritas product installer prompts you to select one of the following licensing

methods:

■ Install a license key for the product and features that you want to install.

When you purchase a Symantec product, you receive a License Key certificate.

The certificate specifies the product keys and the number of product licenses

purchased.

■ Continue to install without a license key.

The installer prompts for the product modes and options that you want to

install, and then sets the required product level.
