Hello,

The licenses for Kymera and Ignition are installed on our Ignition Server.

If we restore a gateway backup from a different server which does not have any license.

Will the Ignition Server have a license issue?

Thank you for your response.

The licenses don’t transfer with backups as they’re tied to a specific installation, so they will stay with the current gateway they are on.
