Tech/Engineering - Computers (general) | | Spanish term or phrase: activo (as noun) | | A list of units of measurement relating to licencing requirements for software contains "por activo" and has as a corresponding definition "se requiere una licencia para todos los "Server Endpoint", "Client Endpoint", "Device Endpoint" u "Other Endpoint" fisicos o lógicos, monitoreados, gestionados o descubiertos por el Product." I'm tempted to translate "activo" as "asset" (borrowing the word from bookkeeping), but would appreciate confirmation or correction. |

Robert Mota: 3:30pm Jul 6, 2008: Contexto para menos confusión
Steven Huddleston: 3:32pm Jul 6, 2008: Si, por favor. Al menos la oración donde se emplea esa frase.
Thomas Ochiltree: 3:40pm Jul 6, 2008: The words in English in my question are given in English in the otherwise Spanish original text (hence the quotation marks that surround them in the original. The original is in two columns: une headed by "Unidades de Medida" and the other by "Definició de Unidad de Medida" "Por activo" is one of the entries in the left hand column. The Text that I quoted is the beginning of the "Definición de Unidad de Medida" corresponding to it.
