The TotalView FNE license server is typically hosted on a single Linux x86 64-bit host machine. (For platform support specifics, see “Requirements for the Local License Server” in the FNE License Server Administration Guide PDF included in the distribution).

However, there is a provision for failover protection using a backup host, which ensures that users are not interrupted in the event of server failure. (See Installing a Failover Server.) The procedure for installing either type is basically the same.

For served licenses, you must install a license server on a system supported by FNE, as described in its administration guide.
