This article is from a FAQ concerning SCO operating systems. While some of the information may be applicable to any OS, or any Unix or Linux OS, it may be specific to SCO Xenix, Open This is an old article about SCO Unix and is only left here for historical purposes.

If you are using OSR5, you simply install the new license pack from SCOAdmin License.
If you are upgrading the user licence but staying on the same release of the operating system, you need to rebrand the appropriate files with the new serial number/activation key that you get in the upgrade kit.
If you're upgrading to a more recent release, use the intelligent upgrade procedure built into the upgrade package. This will not only update your OS to the current level, but will also upgrade your user licence to what you ordered.
