This page lists instructions for upgrading LM-X License Manager.
Important: As of LM-X v4.4, the structure of the SDK has changed. If you are upgrading from a previous version of LM-X License Manager, note the SDK considerations described in SDK changes for LM-X v4.4 and newer.
To upgrade to a newer version of LM-X:
- Download the LM-X SDK distribution.
- Install the LM-X SDK on Windows or Unix.
- Reuse your existing security configuration file and avoid generating a new file by copying the file to the config directory under the newly downloaded distribution directory. Also copy your existing lmx_server_conf.c file to the config directory if you made changes to this file.
- Recompile and test your application with the new version of LM-X.
After upgrading, your existing deployed client applications and existing license files should continue to work with the new version, as described in Version compatibility.
