vCenter Server Domain Repoint License Considerations
Domain repointing copies license keys to a new domain. Copying the license keys ensures that
valid licensing of all assets is maintained after repointing.
vCenter Server tracks license usage on a per domain basis. If a key is used in more than one
domain, you must ensure that the aggregate use of the key does not exceed its capacity. To
simplify your license management, remove each license copied to a second domain and assign a
new license to assets.
Consider the following two cases:
n License keys that are no longer in use (that is, assigned to assets) in the original domain post
repointing.
n License keys that are in use (that is, assigned to assets) in multiple domains.
License Keys Not in Use in a Domain
If after completing repointing, a license key appears in more than one domain, but is not in use
in some of those domains, you can remove the license key from any domain in which it is not in
use. See "Remove Licenses" in
vCenter Server and Host Management
for instructions on how to
remove the licenses in vCenter Server.
