Install Multisim 12 in master image as evaluation or activated for silent cmd line activation post imaging?

[JackalAR]

I am installing Multisim 12 on our WIn7 SP1 x64 master image and I need to know if I should install it as an evaluation or activate it with the PLTW provided serial. I just do not want to hose my silent command line activation on the imaged computers by either activating it or leaving it in eval mode on the master image. NI doesn't seem to know and PLTW doesn't either. I'm running out of time to have to start all over if I don't get it right on the first shot.

I have elected to proceed with the evaluation install, so we'll see how it goes.

Hi Jackal,

The activate code is based on the unique computer MAC address, you don't have to activate Multisim on the master image because after you push out the image, you will have to re-activate Multisim on each lab computers.

Exactly, I just wanted to make sure that the silent command line activation would work post-imaging. Apparently it does not matter one way or the other if the master image is activated or in eval.
