Usage Notes

>Administrator privileges are required to use this API.

>Time-tamper persistence created using this API is now feature and version-independent. This means, you need not execute this API again for using other time-tamper enabled licenses.

Returns

The status code SNTL_PERSISTENCE_SUCCESS or SNTL_PERSISTENCE_FILE_INFO_EXISTS is returned if successful; otherwise, a specific status code is returned indicating the reason for failure.

NOTE   SNTL_PERSISTENCE_SUCCESS is returned when the API is called and persistence files are created. When all or some of the persistence files already exist, SNTL_PERSISTENCE_FILE_INFO_EXISTS is returned.
