Where did the RMC go?
The Remote Access Console (RMC) was the centralized management dashboard previously used for BRC and Fusion products. The RMC has been integrated into x360Recover Manager, and Manager's dashboard now provides the tools previously available in the RMC.

The legacy license portal had been an integral part of the Axcient x360Recover system. Based on feedback from you (and innovation from our developers), the retirement of this portal became necessary and the capabilities of the retired portal have been integrated into x360Recover Manager. After October 24, 2023, whenever you browse to the old site at https://licensing.replibit.com/, you'll be redirected to https://partner.axcient.com

Important note on new appliance licenses: The license provisioning process for new appliances has changed since our legacy License Portal was retired. (See announcement)

Steps to add a license for a new appliance:
1. Create the client (if the client does not yet exist)
2. Install x360Recover on your BDR (if you are using BYOD hardware)
3. Provision the new BDR by connecting to the appliance IP address with a web browser and completing the registration wizard
4. Assign licenses within x360Recover Manager from the Licenses tab, as described above
5. Once the provisioning process has been completed, the new appliance will appear within x360Recover Manager under 'Services' 'Clients' and 'Licenses'
