Follow these steps:

1. Log into Arcserve Backup Manager.
2. Click Help and select About Arcserve Backup.
3. The About Arcserve Backup dialog opens.
3. From the dialog, click Manage Licenses.
4. The License Management dialog opens.
5. 
4. From License Management, select the required License Component Name.
5. From the Licensed machines pane clear the selection from the checkbox of the machine.
6. The license is released from that node and is made available in the license pool.
7. (Optional) If you want to assign the released license, run backup on another node to automatically assign the license.
8. Note: If you do not have enough licenses, unlicensed machines are displayed with red icon in the Licensed machines pane.
