<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> Ensure that you do not edit the contents of the.lic file or the Cisco DCNM software ignores any 
features that are associated with that license file. The contents of the file are signed and must 
remain intact. When you accidentally copy, rename, or insert the license file multiple times, the 
duplicate files are ignored, but the original will be counted.
