# License

**LIBSAFE** is run under a license set by volume and date. The specific license applied is shown in the ***System Configuration - > Licensing*** section.

LIBSAFE applies its size limit to the original objects preserved; so, copies do not count for the license -you may and should define preservation plans with several copies for each object-. 

At first use, the licensee will be disabled, and it will be necessary to access the *Activation panel* directly.

The activation panel allows for:

* Getting the machine ID for the server; this is the code for which **LIBNOVA** will generate a license valid only for this server, and restricted as set in the contract agreement. This code must be e-mailed to **LIBNOVA**. The code is shown for copying in a popup window.
* Activating the licensee, with the code given by **LIBNOVA** for the server ID that was sent to **LIBNOVA**.
* Deactivating the licensee. Once sent the deactivation code to **LIBNOVA**, the use time for the licensee will halt, if the contract so says. This action turns the system unusable, for which reason it must be used with care.
