Scope of supply and structure of GINA

3.2.2 Licensing of GINA

The tool FLEXlm from the company GLOBEtrotter 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
