Step 5: Configuring TotalView to Use the License Server
TotalView must be able to find the ${FLEXLM}/license.dat file. If you are running TotalView and the license server in the installation directory on the same machine, you can skip this step.
If TotalView and the license manager are not running on the same machine, you will need to place a ${FLEXLM}/license.dat file on each additional installation. Copy the ${FLEXLM}/license.client file from the license server into the flexlm-version directory on each remote machine and rename that file to license.dat.
As an alternative, you can specify the full path to the license.dat file in your LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable. A client-style license.dat has the following form:
