Hardware dongles are recommended for on-premise servers, as they can be attached to a backup server without further restrictions.
When software containers are used, we recommend a full daily backup, including system state to allow for a smooth restore that includes the current license status.
Info: The software container protection is based on hardware elements in the validation process. If the hardware changes, the software container validation may fail. If so, the licenses cease to be available.
