If you want to move a product installation with an authorized user
license from one computer to another, you must uninstall the product on the
first machine and reinstall the product on the second machine.
Attention: During the uninstallation process, the permanent
license key is also removed. Be sure to have your original product activation
kit on hand to import the permanent license key and license agreement to the
new computer. If your activation kit did not come on a CD and you no longer
have the downloaded activation kit, go to Passport Advantage® to download
another activation kit using your product order information.
To
move a license key from one computer to another:
- Remove the IBM Rational® software from
the old computer. See the installation guide for your IBM Rational product for the
removal procedures.
- Install the Rational software
on the new computer.
- In the IBM Installation
Manager, import the license key file from the activation kit to the new computer.
