NOTE: If you are installing Track-It!, and you do not have the license file, you can enter your Track-It! serial number and activation key during installation to have it automatically downloaded for you. Alternatively, if you already have the same version of Track-It! installed on another machine, or if you have the license file in another location, you can browse for the file in that machine''s Track-It! Server directory. The license file is found in the Track-It! Server folder by default (ie. C:\Program Files\Numara Software\Numara Track-It!\Track-It! Server). 

In order to install a new license file, take the following steps:
  1. Have everyone close out of Track-It!.
  2. Go to https://license.bmc.com and download the license file.
  3. On the Track-It! server, open the following directory, depending on installation (default):

    C:\Program Files\Numara Software\Numara Track-It!\Track-It! Server

    Track-It! 11.x new
    C:\Program Files\BMC Software\Track-It!\Track-It! Server
     
  4. Copy the new Trackit.lic license file into the Track-It! Server folder and overwrite the existing one if prompted to do so.

  9. Click the Security tab.
  10. Next, click the Advanced button shown towards the bottom.

  13. Click Ok to close the directory's properties.
