3.2.2 Licensing of GINA
The tool FLEX lm from the company GLOBE trotter is used to license GINA. Both the gen-
erators and the GINA runtime system are protected by licenses.
Before GINA can be used, the GINA Competence Center must generate the licenses for
the machine you require (processor ID) and convey them to you.
If you require an evaluation license, refer to the Release Notice for a template which you
must return completed to the GINA Competence Center.
Installing licenses
Store the license entries received from the Competence Center in the file
GinaLicense.dat. This file is a text file. All machines where GINA is installed must be able
to access this file. The environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE must be set on each of
these machines. This variable contains the path and the name of the license file.
Example (UNIX, csh)
setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /home/usr/license/Ginalicense.dat
If the file already exists on your machine, insert in file license.dat the lines of relevance
to GINA.
You can also specify several license files:
Example (UNIX, csh)
setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /home0/GinaLicense.dat:/home1/GinaLicense.dat
