4.4. Activating a System and Subscriptions
Systems or packages can be purchased from third-party vendors that come with their own set of predefined subscriptions.
Rather than attaching new subscriptions to a system, these existing subscriptions can be redeemed or activated. A 16-digit number called an subscription number is generated when these subscriptions are created, and that key is then submitted to redeem those subscriptions.
- Expand the Subscriptions tab, open the Your Subscriptions area, and select the Overview item.

- Click the Activate a subscription link in the upper right of the Summary area.

- In the Subscription Activation page, enter the 16-digit subscription number.

- Continue through the activation wizard.
