Set the borrow term

The borrow term for an activation specifies when the activation is automatically returned to the activation server.

When borrowing more than one activation, the borrow term applies to each activation in the group. You cannot exceed the shortest borrow limit found in the group of activations.

To set the borrow term:

  1. Click Manage Activations > Borrow Activations.
  2. Select the check box next to each activation for which you want to set the borrow term.
  3. Click Set Borrow Term.
  4. Select and configure one of the following options:
    • Calendar. This default option displays the latest date or maximum term for which you can borrow the activation. To change this option, click the arrow list to display a calendar and select an earlier date.
    • Days. Enter the number of days that you want to borrow the activation.
    • Hours. Enter the number of hours that you want to borrow the activation.

      Tip:

      The default date for the Calendar option is the maximum borrow term for the activation or group of activations.
