Starting and Stopping an FNE License Server

An FNE server is configured by default to autostart when the server reboots. In most scenarios, you won’t need to explicitly stop or start the server. You can, however, manually start or stop the server if you need to, or disable its autostart.

Disabling Autostart for an FNE License Server

To disable an FNE server’s autostart configuration, run the following script as root:

<installdir>/toolworks/flexnetls‑<version>/bin/Deconfigure_Autostart

To re-enable autostart, run:

<installdir>/toolworks/flexnetls‑<version>/bin/Configure_Autostart

Manually Starting or Stopping an FNE License Server

Run the following command to manually start the license server.

<installdir>/toolworks/flexnetls‑<version>/bin/toolworks_init start

Note that toolworks_init was generated by the Configure_License script in 4. Configure the FNE License Server.

To stop the license server:

<installdir>/toolworks/flexnetls‑<version>/bin/toolworks_init stop
