On the new server, install Scan Node Agent using the installer and the same license file.
Verify that the scanning node can connect to the Elements Vulnerability Management portal:

Log in to the Elements Vulnerability Management portal.
Go to Scan nodes tab.

Note:
When uninstalling some Scan Node Agent, please keep the "license.fsrl" file and do not deregister it from Elements Vulnerability Management portal, so that it can be reused in future.

It should always be less than a minute since the scanning node attempted to connect to Elements Security Center. If Last Seen is longer, see the section for Troubleshooting Scan Node Issues: Troubleshooting scan nodes issues | Elements Vulnerability Management | 4.0 | WithSecure User Guides
