5 Create the workstation license
/usr/local/flexlm/licenses/DL_licenseNetwork.dat. Copy and paste the
SERVER, VENDOR, and USE_SERVER lines from the license you received
from Autodesk. See Creating the License File for the Workstation to Use
Redundant License Servers (page 112).
6 Create the license file /usr/discreet/licserv/licenses/DL_license.dat on each
license server. Copy and paste the entire license you received from
Autodesk into the each license file.
See Creating the License File for the License Server (page 111).
7 Restart all of the license servers. See Starting the License Server (page
114).
8 Optional: To avoid conflicts with other applications or license servers
in your facility, you may need to change the default port setting used
by the Creative Finishing Software license server. See Changing the De-
fault Port Used by the License Server (page 113).
Installing the License Server Software
The license server is a Linux daemon that provides concurrent licenses to
Creative Finishing Softwareworkstations on the network, as needed.
You can install the license server on a Creative Finishing Softwareworkstation
in your network, or on any 64-bit system running Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Desktop 5.3 with Workstation Option (64-bit), Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS
4, Update 3 (64- bit), CentOS 5.3, or CentOS 4.3.
NOTE For a redundant network license server configuration, you must install the
license server software on all three workstations selected as license servers.
To install the license server:
1 Log in as root to a system designated as a license server.
2 Access your Creative Finishing Software software installation directory.
3 Launch the license server installation script by typing:
./INSTALL_LICSERV
The license server is installed.
