Setting Up License Servers in license.dat

If your license server information was available when you installed FLEXlm, your license.dat file should now be complete. New Builder Xcessory users, however, probably did not have the hostid available, because the utility used to obtain the id (lmhostid) was in the process of being installed.

Editing the license.dat file

Edit the license.dat file as follows:

• Add your license server information to the beginning of the file.
• Replace any incomplete or incorrect SERVER information that may have been generated during the FLEXlm install procedure.

Example license.dat file

This section provides an example license.dat file. If you are using multiple license servers, list them one after another on separate lines.

DAEMON ICSBX {BX}/bin

FEATURE BuilderXcessory ICSBX 5.000 01-jan-00 5 7CE011B74C7D \
VENDOR_STRING="ICS Builder Xcessory"
