Find your licenses

1

Find the license

In Settings → Licenses, find the online license you want to move.
2

Deactivate

Click Deactivate on that row, then confirm in the dialog.
3

Reactivate elsewhere

On the new machine, reactivate the license from your local Incredibuild installation.
Deactivating blocks every machine from using the license until it’s reactivated. If a coordinator is running on the connected grid, it stops immediately - only deactivate when you’re ready to switch machines.

​
Offline license

Reset an offline license to reactivate the coordinator with a new offline license.

Create the request file

On the coordinator machine, open the command line as an administrator and run:
This creates the ib_activation.req file on your machine.

Upload the .req file

In the Incredibuild Console, go to Settings → Licenses, click Reset Offline, then upload the generated .req file in the dialog.
3

Generate the .lic file

Click Generate .lic file.

Load the offline license

Open the command line as an administrator and run:
Your coordinator is now activated with an offline license.
Offline resets are limited within a rolling 3-month window (the dialog shows how many you have left).
