Hi all,
We run concurrent use licenses across campus for 10.1, with ArcGIS 10.1 License Manager installed on a remote server.
We are getting ready to begin distributing ArcGIS 10.2 but many users will of course retain 10.1 for a while. I understand the 10.2 LM is capable of serving all of those licenses and there is nothing for the user to do.
My questions is, is swapping the LM from 10.1 to 10.2 really as straightforward as the instructions below indicate, or are there any hidden issues I need to be aware of before I risk cutting everyone on campus off from ArcGIS?
Thanks,
David

Upgrading licenses from 10.1 to 10.2
ArcGIS 10.1 licenses will operate with ArcGIS 10.2 and no license upgrade is required. However, any client software operating at version 10.2 must use a 10.2 License Manager. To upgrade ArcGIS 10.1 License Manager to ArcGIS 10.2 License Manager, follow these instructions:
Open the License Server from Start > Programs > ArcGIS > License Manager > License Server Administrator. On UNIX/Linux, you can run License Server Administrator from the installation location using the following command: <installation_path>/arcgis/license10.1/LSAdmin.
Stop the License Service under Start/Stop License service and exit the License Server Administrator.
Install the ArcGIS 10.2 License Manager. The installer will automatically uninstall your ArcGIS 10.1 License Manager and install ArcGIS 10.2 License Manager.
Open the License Server from Start > Programs > ArcGIS > License Manager > License Server Administrator. On UNIX/Linux, you can run License Server Administrator from the installation location using the following command: <installation_path>/arcgis/license10.2/LSAdmin.
Start the License Service under Start/Stop License service and exit the License Server Administrator. ArcGIS 10.2 License Manager is now ready for use.
