Warning

Due to improvements to 64-bit support in this release, Pay-Per-Use databases created using a previous version of the LM-X license server no longer work in v4.9.21 and newer.

You can still use lmxendutil from prior versions for verifying databases created prior to v4.9.21; however, the OS version (32-bit or 64-bit) of lmxendutil and the database must match. That is, you must use a 32-bit version of lmxendutil with a database generated by a 32-bit license server, and a 64-bit version of lmxendutil with a database generated by a 64-bit database.

Databases created by LM-X v4.9.21 or newer should be verified by the new lmxendutil. We also recommend that you specify a new file for the database, since the database that was created by the older version and is still being used in LM-X v4.9.21 and newer won't be verified by lmxendutil.
