Entering License Codes
The easiest way to enter the license codes for your application is to use the License Wizard. This wizard
automatically appears when you start an unlicensed application.
To launch an unlicensed application and enter license codes:
1 On your workstation, log into the user account you want to use your application with.
2 Double-click the application icon on the Linux Desktop to start the application.
After a few moments, the License Wizard appears.
3 Click Next.
4 Enter values for the Feature Name, Expiry Date, License Code, and Checksum fields in the Wizard, and
verify the automatically generated value in the System ID field. All of these values appear in the codes
you received from the Licensing Department.
The image below illustrates how to fill in the fields in the Wizard using the values in this license code
sample:
FEATURE smoke_x86_64_r_2010 discreet_l 2010.999 1-jan-0 0
\0D506C1F4F6B12728DA9 \HOSTID=DLHOST03=1004CF9672A67D3B92BA7AA980B0D907
ck=35
NOTE An expiry date of 1-jan-0 means the license never expires.
5 Click Install.
The License Wizard installs the license, and displays a message indicating the install was successful and
asking you to restart the application.
6 Click Finish to exit the License Wizard.
You are returned to the terminal.
7 Press Enter to close the terminal.
You are now ready to start your application for the first time.
Manually Adding Licenses to the License File
To add additional license codes you receive from the Licensing Department (such as the DI license), open
the file /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/DL_license.dat in a text editor and paste the license text in that file.
WARNING Edit this file with care; an incorrect character or missing space may prevent the application from
recognizing the license.
Starting the Application for the First Time
After you enter the license code for the application, you are ready to start the application for the first time.
