Steps to configure the License Server on a Windows system:
Flexlm licensing license key#
The same License Key Administrator and License Tools utility can be used for all vendors, even if the third party vendor also provides these tools with their product. Warning: The following procedure is not supported by IBM ® Rational ® but is technically possible.Įach vendor's licenses must be configured as separate services. The same version should be used on license server and clients.

It is also recommended to use the latest version of lmgrd for all the flexlm vendors, but is not a hard and fast rule.Though such setup may work, it is pretty much unstable. One important point to note is to never use the lmgrd version lower than the vendor daemon version.If you still wish to combine license files and enter into a unsupported IBM® Rational® license server configuration, please refer to the Flexera's FLEXlm End User's Guide located on their web site in conjunction with the following procedure.Configuring the system to use a single lmgrd daemon offers no operational advantage and creates unnecessary work for the administrator of the license server.Note: It might be possible for you to combine lmgrd daemons, but doing so is not supported by IBM® Rational®. It is able to serve all license features that were previously served by the rational and telelogic vendor daemons, so the latter daemons are no longer required and should be removed from, or hashed out in, the license file. As of IBM® Rational® License Key Server version 8.1.1 the ibmratl vendor daemon is the vendor daemon to use. Using separate daemons and license files will not inhibit performance.

Setup of IBM® Rational® FLEXlm licensing with third party vendors to run multiple servers on a single host is technically possible but unsupported.
