Accessing Licenses From a UNIX License Server
You can access licenses from a UNIX license server by doing the following:
| 1 |
Set up the UNIX license server(s) to use FLEXnet version 11.4.1 or higher lmgrd and agileesofd daemons. |
| 2 |
Set up the PC to access the UNIX license server's license.lic file. |
Setting Up the UNIX License Server
You must use version 11.4.1 or higher of the FLEXnet daemons lmgrd and agileesofd. Use the following commands to check the version of lmgrd and agileesofd on your UNIX license server:
-
cd $ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin
. / lmgrd -version
cd $ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/vendors
. / agileesofd -v
Use the following steps to update current FLEXnet daemons on your license server:
| 1 |
Stop the current FLEXnet daemons on the license server: |
-
cd $ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin
. /lmutil lmdown -c ../license.lic
| 2 |
Replace the following files with the supported FLEXnet version files: |
-
$ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin/lmgrd
$ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin/lmutil
$ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin/agileesofd
- If you have more than one license server, make sure you do this on all of them.
| 3 |
Restart the license daemons on the UNIX license server(s): |
-
cd $ICCAP_ROOT/licenses/bin
. / lmgrd -c ../license.lic -l ../flex.log
Setting Up the Client(s)
Your PC can access the UNIX license server's license.lic file in either of two ways:
| • |
By copying the license.lic file from the UNIX license server to the PC's <installation_directory>\licenses folder |
| • |
By setting the AGILEESOFD_LICENSE_FILE variable on the PC to point to the UNIX license server as follows: |
-
set AGILEESOFD_LICENSE_FILE=<port>@<host>
- For example:
-
set AGILEESOFD_LICENSE_FILE=27000@joshua
- where 27000 is the port number on the SERVER line in the in the license.lic file and joshua is the hostname of the UNIX license server.
To set an AGILEESOFD_LICENSE_FILE system environment variable that points to the license.lic file, use the steps outlined in Changing the Location of the License File.
