Adding a New license.dat File
The Configure_License script, which is located in the ${FLEXLM}/bin directory, creates the license.dat file and the toolworks_init script. Configure_License needs to read the license.src file. This file, which you will create, contains NextGen TotalView for HPC license keys.
Here is the procedure for creating this license.src file:
1. Change to the flexlm-version directory on the license server
cd ${FLEXLM}
2. Copy and paste the new Rogue Wave license keys — this is the information that you received through email — into a file named license.src in the <installdir>flexlm‑version directory.
The text in your license.src is derived from your host information, number of license keys, and license configurations.
3. Run the ${FLEXLM}/bin/Configure_License script on the license server. You must run this script while your current directory is flexlm-version. The script creates the following files:
— ${FLEXLM}/license.dat
— ${FLEXLM}/license.opt
NOTE >> If you already have a license.opt file the script asks whether you want to overwrite it. Answer “n” to preserve your existing file with its named users. If you answer “y”, a new file without named users is created, but your existing file is saved as license.opt.old.
— ${FLEXLM}/license.client
— ${FLEXLM}/license.log
— ${FLEXLM}/bin/toolworks_init
