The following files should be distributed to end users:
Component |
| Description |
|---|---|---|
Windows Filename(s) | Unix Filename(s) |
|
lmx-serv.exe lmx-serv.cfg | lmx-serv lmx-serv.cfg | License server for end users along with its configuration file. The license server can either be run from a console or as a service (on Windows) or daemon (on Unix). |
liblmxvendor.dll | liblmxvendor.so/dylib | Vendor-specific file containing all vendor-implemented extensions to the license server. This file must be distributed to end users along with the license server file. On Windows, the liblmxvendor.dll file must be placed in the same directory as the license server. On Unix, the startup scripts provided in $platform/enduser should be used for starting the LM-X License Server. |
lmxendutil.exe | lmxendutil | End-user command line utility. |
lmxconfigtool.exe | N/A | End-user GUI configuration utility (Windows only). |
In addition, if a user has problems with the system clock, you may send the user the LmxResetSystemClock tool. See System clock check for more information about this tool.
With most installers under Windows, you can automate the license server registration as a service, because the license server is installed through a set of command line parameters. Also see Performing a silent installation.
To automate license server registration, make sure your installer first copies the file to its destination, and then executes it with the appropriate parameters to install it as a service. If the installation is successful, the return code is zero; otherwise, it is non-zero.
Further details on the usage of these tools can be found in the LM-X End Users Guide.
