When we upgraded from 6.3.0 to 7.1.0 we did not do any purge and the licenses were imported automatically as part of the upgrade (ar_install) script

We have upgraded a couple of non-production servers to 7.1 and did not purge licenses beforehand. When looking at the license information after the upgrade the only license that had a key was the server. All other entries just had quantities. I did not purge the licenses because there was no change of hardware. I assume that Remedy took the data in the license file and made entries in the license form. Is my thinking incorrect?

If this is done, will the upgrade pick up the correct information for the all the licenses on the server? Thanks, Roger A.
