You return licenses so that they can be used elsewhere.
You can return licenses from automation servers.
This is done, for example, if you for some reasons have assign and activated licenses on an automation server that does not need licenses. When the licenses have been returned they can be used on another automation server.
Licenses can only be returned if the automation server is online.
When you return licenses, all licenses on the selected server are returned.
In Device Administrator, click Servers .
Select Show licenses .
Select the automation servers where you want to return the licenses.
Click Other .
Click Return licenses .
In the Return All Licenses dialog box, click Yes .
