It is not necessary to install ArcSDE starting from 10.1...you only need to install ArcSDE if you want to use the ArcSDE Commandline tools or the ArcSDE services.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>2. You can use your existing ArcSDE license if they have not expired w/o any issues.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 14 Feb 2014 21:40:00 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/architecture-and-licensing-question/m-p/418203#M23859 AsrujitSengupta 2014-02-14T21:40:00Z
