To configure your license server
You should be logged in with Administrator rights when working with the
LMTOOLS utility.
1 Click Start ➤ All Programs ➤ Autodesk ➤ Network License Manager
➤ LMTOOLS Utility.
2 In the LMTOOLS program, on the Service/License File tab, make sure the
Configure Using Services option is active.
3 Click the Config Services tab.
4 In the Service Name list, select the service name you want to use to
manage licenses.
By default, the service name is Flexlm Service 1. If FLEXnet
®
is managing
other software on your computer in addition to Autodesk, you can change
the service name to avoid confusion. For example, you can rename Flexlm
Service 1 to Autodesk Server1.
NOTE If you have more than one software vendor using FLEXnet for license
management, the Service Name list contains more than one option. Make
sure that only one Autodesk service is listed.
5 In the Path to Lmgrd.exe File field, enter the path to the Network License
Manager daemon (lmgrd.exe), or click Browse to locate the file.
By default, this daemon is installed in the C:\Program Files\Autodesk
Network License Manager folder.
6 In the Path to the License File box, enter the path to your license file, or
click Browse to locate the file.
This is the path to the license file obtained through autodesk.com or the
location where you placed the license file if you obtained it offline.
7 In the Path to the Debug Log File box, enter a path to create a debug log,
or click Browse to locate an existing log file.
It is recommended that you save to the C:\Program Files\Autodesk Network
License Manager folder. The log file must have a .log file extension. For
new log files, you must enter the .log extension manually.
8 To run lmgrd.exe as a service, select Use Services.
9 To start lmgrd.exe automatically when the system starts, select Start Server
at Power Up.
