This is definitely the case. It should be noted that licensing is not
the strong point of Legato support, and what was quoted by a Legato
support tech was actually incorrect.

Re-adding will be easy - simply note both the enabler code and
authorisation code, then delete. A backup of another Unix-OS style
client from a Solaris NetWorker server will then fail. Re-add the
license in order to perform the backups.
