FAQ: What happens when I disable a location?

Quick Answer

When you disable a location:

1. All active machines at the location are automatically deactivated
2. Machine hardware fingerprints are cleared — machines are unbound from their physical computers
3. No new transactions can be created at the location
4. The location still counts toward your subscription's location limit

Important Details

• Disabling is not the same as deleting. The location and all its data remain in the system.
• Disabled machines free up machine subscription slots.
• Disabled locations do NOT free up location subscription slots.
• You can re-enable the location later and selectively reactivate its machines.

Reversal

To re-enable a disabled location:

1. Open the location for editing
2. Uncheck the "Disabled" checkbox
3. Click Save & Close
4. Select which machines to reactivate from the dialog that appears
5. Each machine is checked against subscription capacity before activation
