FlexLM License Server Keys
CAUTION: Backup the registry prior to making any changes. Refer to the Microsoft documentation
for more information.
When a FlexLM license server is used with RGS, the FlexLM libraries will add the license server
information to the following registry keys:
NOTE: Not all keys listed below may be present in your registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\FLEXlm License Manager\HPQ_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\LM_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\HPQ_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\LM_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\HPQ_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\LM_LICENSE_FILE
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment
\HPQ_LICENSE_FILE
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\FLEXlm License Manager\LM_LICENSE_FILE
In some cases, there may be other registry entries that are used by FlexLM. To find them, you will need
to search the registry for keys named either "LM_LICENSE_FILE" or "HPQ_LICENSE_FILE". The value of
these keys will be the license server paths, as specified for the environment variables. See the section
Configuring the Windows RGS Sender to access a floating license on page 27 for details on these
values and how they are set.
