Copy the Authorization Code recently generated.-Go back to the Product Authorization Wizard and click Next.-Click the Paste button. If the Authorization Code was properly pasted, a green check mark will appear to its right. Click Next.-In the next window, your product Serial Number, Digital ID and Authorization Code will appear.
After the installation is complete, the ArcGIS Administrator Wizard is displayed. You can also start this wizard to select or change a product at a later time by selecting the ArcGIS Administrator from Start > All Programs > ArcGIS > ArcGIS Administrator.
The ArcGIS Administrator assists you in configuring ArcGIS for Desktop. You will have two product types to select from: Concurrent Use or Single Use.
I
Concurrent Use
Concurrent Use products use a centrally or locally installed 10.3.1 License Manager. Follow these setups to complete the Concurrent Use product authorization.
Step 1: Select one of the three Concurrent Use products.
Step 2: Define a license manager. The License Manager defined must be a 10.3.1 License Manager. Once the License Manager is defined for Concurrent Use products, the applications are ready to use.
To install the License Manager and authorize it, see the License Manager Reference Guide.
Single Use
Single Use products require authorization on individual machines for use. You will need the authorization codes sent from Esri Customer Service to the contact email address referenced in the sales order during the authorization process. This email includes the authorization codes issued for each license in the order. In addition to finding the information in the email, if you already have an Esri Global Account, you can log in to the Esri Customer Care site, click on Authorization & Provisioning, then click on a product name to obtain its authorization code. If you do not yet have an Esri Global Account, you can create one at My Esri. You will receive an email confirmation and have access to Authorization & Provisioning on the Customer Care site.
For ArcGIS for Desktop Single Use, the authorization code starts with the letters ESU or EVA, followed by nine numeric digits, for example, ESU123456789. Follow these steps to complete the Single Use product authorization. (Contact information can be found at http://www.esri.com/about-esri/contact.)
Step 1: Select one of the three Single Use products.
Step 2: Click Authorize Now to launch the Software Authorization Wizard. The wizard will walk you through the online or offline authorization process.
Online authorization
With online authorization, the Software Authorization Wizardconnects directly to the Esri authorization site using secure sockets layer (SSL) from the deployed machine. Online authorization can be used if the machine on which the software has been installed is connected to the Internet and is able to connect to https://service.esri.com. Online authorization can be performed by directly entering the authorization code in the Software Authorization Wizard or by creating a provisioning file (.prvc) at My Esri.
For more information on a provisioning file, refer to the License Manager Reference Guide.
Offline authorization
Offline authorization is used if the machine where ArcGIS for Desktop is installed does not have Internet connectivity. In this case, the authorization process creates a text file which can be uploaded to the Esri authorization server from an Internet-connected machine or can be sent in an email to Esri Customer Service to obtain an authorization response file (.respc). This authorization response file can be copied to the machine where ArcGIS for Desktop is installed and used to authorize ArcGIS for Desktop without a direct Internet connection.
Step 3: Upon opening the Software Authorization Wizard, you will be provided with three authorization options:
- I have installed my software and need to authorize it.
Select this option to proceed with the authorization process by entering the authorization code you received from Esri Customer Service.
- I have already authorized the software and need to authorize additional extensions.
This option is used if you have already authorized the core ArcGIS for Desktop and now want to authorize any extensions. Authorizing additional extensions acquired after authorizing core ArcGIS for Desktop can be done by starting ArcGIS Administrator from Start > All Programs > ArcGIS. Once in the ArcGIS Administrator utility, select the Desktop folder and select Authorize Now.
- I have received an authorization file from Esri and am now ready to finish the authorization process.
Select this option if you have a provisioning file created from the Esri Customer Care portal.
Select the appropriate option and click Next.
Step 4
Here you have the options to select online or offline methods of authorization, or authorize your Single Use product from a local license server.
Steps 5 and 6
Provide your contact information and details in the next two dialog boxes. If you are using a provisioning file (online authorization only), this information will be automatically populated from the file.
Step 7
Mitcalc Authorization Code Serial
Enter your ArcGIS for Desktop authorization code starting with ESU or EVA, followed by nine digits.
Step 8
Next, you will have the option to authorize any extensions. If you choose to authorize any extensions, the Software Authorization Wizard will prompt you to enter the authorization codes for the extensions. If you choose not to authorize, the Software Authorization Wizard provides the option to evaluate any extension in the next step.
Step 9
In this step you may choose to evaluate any extensions for which you have not provided an authorization code in the previous step.
Online authorization
Use the online authorization and click Next to connect to the Esri Activation Site. Upon completion, you will receive a message that authorization is successful and the applications will be ready for use.

Offline authorization
The remaining steps are applicable only to offline authorization.
Step 10
You will be requested to save your authorization information to disk as a file named authorize.txt. You can then upload the authorization text file or send an email with the file attached.
If uploading the text file, an authorization response file will be generated to download.
When sending an email with the text file attached, you will receive a return email from Esri with the authorization response file.
After receiving the response file, start ArcGIS Administrator from Start > All Programs > ArcGIS to complete the authorization process.
Step 11
In the ArcGIS Administrator, click the Desktop folder, select the appropriate Single Use product, and click Authorize Now.
Step 12
Select I have received an authorization file from Esri and browse to the (*.respc) file. Click Next so the applications will be authorized and ready for use.

Product Specific Questions:
- What is Powerlink Licensing?
EMC´s online customer self-service portal for activation and administration of electronic software license entitlements.
What is an Entitlement?An entitlement is an electronic record representing the type, version, and quantity of the software to which you have purchased a license. When an entitlement is activated an electronic license key or license file is generated.
What is License Activation?An online process by which Customers and Partners access Powerlink Licensing to generate license file(s) or key(s) from their entitlements. License activation occurs after Customers and/or Partners receive a LAC (License Authorization Code) letter and the LAC number listed on their LAC letter is redeemed.
What is a License File/License Key?The output of activation used to determine authorization for software usage. Helps customers manage their compliance with EMC ´ s end user license agreement (EULA).
What is a Locking ID?- During the license activation process the system on which the license(s) will be installed is usually identified.
- To ensure an unambiguous association between the license and the system, a key attribute of the system is identified (e.g., the MAC address, host ID or IP address) and encoded into the license as the locking ID.
- This prevents the license from being inadvertently copied or moved to other systems and helps the customer maintain compliance with their license agreement with EMC.
How do I find my Locking ID?This varies by product see the Locking ID Help Guide.
What is an Activation Certificate?When customers and partners activate entitlements, Powerlink Licensing creates a certificate which contains the license key(s) and/or the license file(s)
What is a License Authorization Code (LAC)?- When EMC issues new license entitlements to a customer based on a purchase, evaluation or other event, the entitlements are associated to a unique License Authorization Code (LAC).
- A LAC can have one or more entitlements associated to it. A LAC is the primary identifier of the entitlement(s), used by the customer or partner to locate and activate licenses via Powerlink Licensing.
- At the time a LAC is generated it is usually emailed to the customer, but this is not always the case for evaluation licenses or for purchases of certain products.
What is a LAC Letter or LAC Email?Letter emailed or physically delivered to customers during order processing and fulfillment.The LAC letter contains instructions for downloading software binaries as well as activating your entitlements.
The LAC Letter also contains your software license authorization code (LAC).
How do I find my LAC?When your software order is fulfilled you will receive an email or letter that includes the LAC for your order and instructions for activating entitlements online with Powerlink Licensing. See example below:
If you have misplaced your LAC, contact Worldwide Licensing Support.
What is Software ID?A Software ID is an alphanumeric value that is inserted into a product’s license file to help customers and EMC representatives identify the software asset. There are two primary use cases where the Software ID will be required:
1. Opening a Service Request: Enter the value into the 'Product ID' field in support.emc.com to open a new service request.
2. Enabling Remote Connectivity to EMC: If an EMC software product has remote connectivity functionality, and the customer has consented to data transfers, the software ID will be used by EMC to identify the incoming file transfer. Typically, this is an automated process, and a serial number may be used in-place of the Software ID when available.
It is important to note that not all EMC software has a Software ID and that the ID is not required for the purposes of licensing. If an EMC product has adopted the Software ID, a 'Software ID' tab will be present in the Powerlink Licensing 'View Certificate' Page and the associated IDs will be listed within the tab.
How do I know if my entitlements are part of an Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) or Volume Software License Agreement (VSLA)?If the License Authorization Code (LAC) begins with ELA or VSLA, then the entitlement associated with the LAC are subject to an ELA or VSLA between your company and EMC. See example below:
What is Rehost?Rehost is the process of moving activated entitlements from one device or machine to a different device or machine. A rehost may be partial (moving a portion of the entitlements) or full (moving everything on the device or machine).
For example, a full rehost need to be completed when a new server is installed and replaces an existing server. The entitlements would need to be rehosted and new authorization codes/key file(s) generated based on the locking ID of the new server. The rehost operation is done via Powerlink Licensing.
What is a Site?A site represents some meaningful way for a company to manage its entitlements. For example, a site might represent a business division or a geographic location. EMC uses the Dun & Bradstreet DUNS as its primary tool to manage company sites.
Note: Site ID in Powerlink Licensing is not the same as Site ID in Powerlink
What is a Coordinator?A coordinator is a point of contact at a customer site that is responsible for the licensing aspect of the customer´ s relationship with EMC. A user with the role of Coordinator can manage all entitlements and activations for the sites the user is associated to.
What licensing activities can an EMC Online Support full vs. Lite user perform?Lite User: While a new account in the EMC Online Support is being validated a user will have access to a subset of EMC Online Support features. This limited access includes access to the Powerlink Licensing application.
Full user: Both types of users can utilize their License Authorization Code (LAC) to activate and manage their software entitlements, and obtain license files/license keys, and move and rehost entitlements as required.
Who should I contact for Licensing Support?If you have any questions about your EMC order, contact your EMC Sales Account Representative or your Authorized Reseller.
If you have any questions about EMC software licensing, contact our Worldwide Licensing Support team by following the below instructions:
Visit Service Center to:
Use the Live Chat between the hours of 3:00 AM and 7:00 PM Eastern.

Contact EMC's live support team by calling - 800-782-4362, option 4, option 4 (24 X 7)
What is the License Site Number?'License Site Number' refers to the site to which your license entitlement is associated. Your company may have multiple License Sites and your access to viewing and activating licenses will depend on how your profile is connected to each License Site.Please note that your License Site Number is different from the Site ID you will find on the EMC Support Service Center web pages.
What does the IB Status field indicate in Powerlink Licensing?IB Status: This field in Powerlink Licensing, when populated with 'de-installed' indicates that your software entitlement in our EMC Install Base is de-installed.
While the software entitlement remains at your disposal in Powerlink Licensing for future transactions (activate, rehost), if you wish to change its IB Status please contact your authorized reseller or your EMC Sales Support Renewals' account team.Note: Where the IB status field is blank no action is required.
How do I find by Symmetrix ID (Symm ID)?Open a command prompt on the server running the Solutions Enabler application.
At the prompt, enter the following command and press enter:
Symcfglist
The SYMMID column contains the Symmetrix serial numbers for every Symmetrix array the SE Host is connected to. Choose the Symm ID for which you want to license SPA.
If the Customer is using SMC to manage the array, they would expand the Symmetrix Arrays folder in the SMC navigation tree. All Symmetrix arrays that can be seen will be listed:
How do I find my Product Serial Number?Your VNXe serial number can be cut and pasted from the 'Manage Licenses' screen of your VNXe management console.
You can also find it on the tag hanging from the back of your VNXe in the 'SN:' field.
Each VNXe comes with a unique serial number/product ID located on the tag attached to the DPE.
You can find the system´ s Product ID/SN displayed on a tag at the back of their VNXe system.
How do I find my VMAX Serial Number?1. Locate the System bay of the VMAX system in question. The System bay is the bay that houses the engines for the array.)
2. Open the Front Door of the System bay.
3. The serial number is located on a Blue Tag attached to the frame of the front of the System bay.
- For a VMAX system the Blue Tag is located at the top of the System bay.
- For a VMAX-SE system the Blue Tag is located in the middle of the cabinet.
- The serial number is the top set of numbers located on the Blue Tag.
