2 Network Installation Procedure
Checking the FLEXnet Options File
The installer creates the FLEXnet options file, matiabroot\f lexlm\MLM.opt,
as part of the installation process. In this options file, the installer puts an
INCLUDE line for each product you are licensed to install and run. By default,
the installer puts the usemame of the person who performed the installation
in these INCLUDE lines. If you performed your own installation, the options
file might not need editing. However, if you performed the installation for
another user, or if your license server is installed on a UNIX system and you
had root privileges when you performed the installation, you will need to
edit this options file.
For example, if your usemame is sysadmin, the options file would look like
this.
INCLUDE MATLAB USER sysadmin
INCLUDE Signal_Toolbox USER sysadmin
INCLUDE Optimization_Toolbox USER sysadmin
You must replace sysadmin in these INCLUDE statements with the
usemames of the licensed users. Because the installer includes the
GROUPCASEINSENSITIVE option in the options file and sets it to ON, login
names are not case sensitive. If multiple users are licensed for the same
product, you must create a separate INCLUDE line for each user or use the
FLEXnet GROUP S3mtax. The number of users must not exceed the number of
license keys available for that product. This example shows both methods.
Note If you edit the options file, make certain that there are no extra space
characters at the end of each INCLUDE line.
