DL series backup appliance owners can add one or more licenses to the Rapid Recovery Core Console.

Once you have upgraded or purchased your Rapid Recovery license, you receive by email either a license file or a license key.

You can also update or change an existing license on the Core Console. For more information, see Updating or changing a license.

NOTE: Only DL appliance users see the Add Additional License button.
