License File

This appendix describes the basic format and content of the password-enabled license file.

If you already have a license file in place, either from a previous version of JAM or Prolifics, or from another application that uses FLEXlm, you can combine license files by inserting the license file information provided by the License Desk.

Contents of the License File

The license file has the following basic format:

SERVER sname hostid port

DAEMON daemon-name path

FEATURE product daemon-name version exp_date number password\

ISSUED=date SN=serial number HOSTID=hostid ck=checksum

INCREMENT product daemon-name version exp_date number password\

ISSUED=date SN=serial number HOSTID=hostid ck=checksum

Note: FEATURE and INCREMENT lines should not be changed: they contain the license password and other information which, if modified, could prevent Prolifics from running. Also, the host ID of the server on the SERVER line should not be changed.

SERVER

Specifies the server on which a license manager can run. License files require a SERVER line only for the Prolifics development client. The SERVER line has the following format:
