Context
You can configure Windows and Linux client machines to access floating licenses hosted on a server without installing the Thermo Scientific License Manager (LM).
Process
1. Server Parameter Details:
- Port ID (License Server Manager Port in Use) is the port number used by the server Imadmin to communicate with Avizo. Make sure that the firewall on each client machine is configured to allow communication through this port.
- Server Host Name is the hostname of the machine hosting the floating licenses.
This information can be found on the server machine at http://localhost:8090/systeminfo
2. Configuration on the Client Machine:
2.1 Windows:
- Create the environment variable ASGLMD_LICENSE_FILE.
- Set its value to portid@serverHostname.
- Ensure that this variable is configured for all user accounts that will run Amira/Avizo.
2.2 Linux
- Edit the login shell script file (.bashrc for Bash or .cshrc for C shell).
- Add the ASGLMD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable to portid@serverHostname.
- Ensure that this variable is configured for all user accounts that will run Amira/Avizo.
- Examples:
- Linux Bash: export ASGLMD_LICENSE_FILE=27000@FRBOR.8CJ3XT2
- Linux C shell: setenv ASGLMD_LICENSE_FILE=27000@FRBOR.8CJ3XT2
