Update a license for existing FNMEA installation

[velocitysurfer]

I've obtained additional FNMEA entitlements and have generated and downloaded the license file. However I'm at a loss of how to install the license file onto an existing FNMEA installation. The link supplied in license file email doesn't work.

As per License Files for Upgrade Installations try the following to install an updated license file:

1. Download the license file and save it locally on your Admin server.
2. If the Admin server is running, stop it by doing the following:
   1. Open a Command Prompt window, and change to the Admin installation directory.
   2. Type the command: flexnet stop
3. Delete the old license file by doing the following:
   1. In a file explorer, navigate to the following location:
      <installation_dir>\config\license
   2. Delete the old license file.
4. Import the new license file using the Configurator by doing the following:
   1.  At the command line, type: flexnet site
   2. In the License File Path setting, navigate to the new license file.
5. Repeat Step 2 through Step 4 for the Reporting server.
