When you delay licensing

If you choose to delay installation of the license key, all features in Veritas System Recovery Linux Edition remain enabled during a 60-day trial period.

Veritas Recovery Disk (SRD), a component of Veritas System Recovery Linux Edition, is available with no trial period. However, you need a valid license key to use the back up feature in Veritas Recovery Disk. If you have created the Veritas Recovery Disk on a computer having licensed version of Veritas System Recovery Linux Edition, the Veritas Recovery Disk is automatically licensed. In such cases, you can perform cold backups using the Veritas Recovery Disk without the need of adding a license key.

You can purchase a license key and activate the software at any time (even after the trial period expires) without the need to reinstall. To activate Veritas System Recovery Linux Edition before or after the trial period, you can use the following command:

#symsr -addlicense <license key>
