Workflow

When a HDD is replaced or System Software (BOS) is re-installed:

As the System Fingerprint does not change, you can reactivate the RIP software with the same license file as the one used for the last activation. If the license file is lost, log in to the certificate site with the same EID as the one used for the last activation, and then download the license file again.

When the Motherboard is replaced:

As the System Fingerprint changes, you cannot reactivate the RIP software with the same license file as the one used for the last activation. Activate the RIP software with both of the following.

  • The same EID as the one used for the last activation
  • A new System Fingerprint.

  • The license can be easily activated without the need for a new EID for the defective DFE. The person in charge of EID can simply increase the number of available activations allocated to the original EID. In other words, a new EID for replacement Motherboards will not be required.
