Issue:<\/h3>\n

If an Elements device was removed from the Elements Security Center portal's Environment > Devices <\/strong>page by the "Manage automatic deletion" feature, will the device return to the portal using the same license and Unique ID (UUID) if the device becomes active again?<\/p>\n

Resolution:<\/h3>\n

If a device that was removed from the Elements portal by the Manage automatic deletion<\/strong> feature becomes active again, it will return to the same subscription key that it was assigned to and it will have the same Unique ID (UUID).<\/p>\n

If the subscription key is full, the device will reappear in the Elements Security Center portal once there are available licenses on the subscription key.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
