LSF Questions:
Question:
Often customers are already using FLEXlm to license other software products and may have FLEXlm binaries with different versions other than those supplied by Platform. How do we correctly configure FLEXlm so all licenses are available?
Answer:
There is a strict hierarchy of FLEXlm versions which is supported according to the FLEXlm documentation:
lmgrd should always be highest version
Vendor daemons (lsf_ld) must be equal/lower than lmgrd version
Application (LIM) must be equal/lower than vendor daemon
License key generation (must be equal/lower than Application)
The application and license generation are controlled by the vendor. Updating either lmgrd and/or vendor is often all that is required. If you maintain this relationship between your components, everything should operate correctly.
