Application activation procedure

To activate the application:

  1. Create an application activation task for the SVMs on which you want to activate the application in the Administration Console or in the Web Console.

    When the application activation task is created, a key from the Kaspersky Security Center key storage is used. You can add a key to the Kaspersky Security Center key storage in advance or while creating an application activation task.

  2. Start the application activation task in the Administration Console or in the Web Console and make sure that the task has completed successfully.

If you add an active key, the task activates the application on those SVMs on which an active key was missing. On SVMs on which the application has already been activated, the task replaces the old key with the new one.

If both a server key and a desktop key have been added on an SVM, the application usage period is the longer of the following two periods: the period of application use with the server key or the period of application use with the desktop key.

If the number of licensing units for which the key is being used exceeds the number specified in the License Certificate, Kaspersky Security sends an event to the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server with information about the violation of the license restrictions (please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center documentation).
