License installation

On-line license

Create a member profile and buy on line with your credit card. At startup the tool will check license validity on our web site. That means an active internet connection is required when using the tool.

Local license server

A license server on your local area network must be installed. Below is explained how to get the hostname and hostid needed to generate the license file.

For a PragmaDev License Manager (PLM) server
Download and run the utility for your license server architecture:
For a FLEXlm license server
Download the lmutil FLEXlm utility:
Rename it to lmutil if necessary, and run on the machine that will be your license server:
- On Windows platform:
  lmutil.exe lmhostid
  lmutil.exe lmhostid -hostname
  to get the hostname and hostid.
- On Unix:
  hostname
  lmutil lmhostid
