HP-MPI V1.1 for Windows Release Note

Licensing Policy for Windows

Installing License Files

A valid license file contains the system hostid and the associated license key. License files can

be named either as license.dat or any name with extension of *.lic (like mpi.lic, for

example). The license file must be copied to the installation directory (default

C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP-MPI\licenses) on all runtime systems,

and to the license server.

The command to run the license server is:

"%MPI_ROOT%\bin\licensing\<arch>\lmgrd" -c mpi.lic

License Testing

Build and run the hello_world program in %MPI_ROOT%\help\hello_world.c to check for a

license. If your system is not properly licensed, you will receive the following error message:

(“MPI BUG: Valid MPI license not found in search path”)
