Once the Meter based Term Licenses are removed, you cannot install it again on the same management
station. However, it can be installed on a different management station. The available capacity will
be same as the license capacity of the Meter based Term license key. When the positive Meter based
Term license units are removed from one management station and re-installed on another, only the
unused Meter based Term units are added.
Consider the following scenario where different TB-Days have been installed:

If the 90TB-Days are consumed and if we remove the Meter based Term units and install it on a
different management station after the data is imported. Only 10TB-Days units Meter based Term
license will be added which was left during the removal of 100TB-Days units using Backup and restore
tool.
