How to deactivate your Bamboo Product License if your server doesn’t have access to the Internet

If your SharePoint WFE server does not have Internet access, you will not be able to deactivate a Bamboo product license from Central Administration. Instead, you can access the My Bamboo area of the Bamboo Solutions web site to deactivate any Bamboo product license key.

Follow the steps below:

Step	Action
1.	Determine the license key you want to move or deactivate. Go to Central Administration and under the Bamboo Solutions section, click Manage My License Keys. NOTE: If you are using SharePoint 2007, in Central Administration, go to the Operations tab to see the Bamboo Solutions section and the Manage My License Keys link. Locate the product that you need to deactivate and click the product name link. The license Status Page will be displayed. Each server that is licensed for that product is listed on the page. NOTE: If you don’t see the License Key on this page see Is there a way to find a lost or unknown Bamboo product license key.
2.	Log in to My Bamboo from a computer with an Internet connection. NOTE: If you don’t have a login account, you can create one quickly. All you need is a valid email address.
3.	At the bottom of any My Bamboo page in the My Orders tab, locate the Manage License link and click it. The Manage License page will be displayed.
4.	On the Deactivate Your License side of the Manage License page, enter your license key and then click the magnifying glass (). The Assembly Name licensed with this key will be displayed. Ensure it is the product you expect and then click Deactivate. Once deactivated, the license key can be re-used on your new or changed server. A license key can be used on only one server at a time.
