I run the RTE on a Beckhoff CX and I realised that the softcontainer of the license is stored in the CFast card, not in the CX itself. I also realised that the license is attached to that specific CFast card, in other words, if I make a backup image of its content and load it into another card, the license is not valid.
I assume my findings are the expected? Knowing this, what should I do if the card gets lost or damaged? Is there a way to recover the license?
Thank you in advance,
Omar

Hi Omar,
sure this is as expected.
You have two choices.
1. ask the support
2. use the runtime key for license storage
