You can't, and this shouldn't be necessary either.

All TS CALs have an expiration date. That means that a license
which has not been used (a PC has not made a connection to the TS)
during a period of 52-89 days, will automatically be returned to
the Licensing server and become available for another client. In
the meantime, the new client will receive a temporary license,
which is valid for 90 days. So before the temporary license on the
new client expires, the old license becomes available again.
If you find that new clients temporary licenses expire before any
old licenses are returned to the LS, it simply means that you have,
at least during some time, connected more clients than you have TS
CALs and you need to buy more.
