The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6.0 7 or newer, which introduced new licensing model (2019)moved LM-X license server installer and liblmxvendor library from the "license" directory to "tools". If you are using an earlier version, please refer to the documentation for earlier versions.

To setup a floating license for License Statistics, you must configure and start the LM-X license server using the lmx-enduser-tools installer (included with the License Statistics distribution and located in the license directory tools directory) and correctly configure License Statistics. Note that to install LM-X license server, you need to specify the path to the liblmxvendor.dll file, whose default location is also the license tools directory.

  1. After installation of the LM-X end user tools and license server, set the path to the License Statistics license file. (The path should be specified in the LICENSE_FILE setting as described in License Server Configuration file in the LM-X End Users Guide.)
  2. Start/restart the LM-X license server. For Windows, after verifying that your setup is working, the LM-X server should be installed as a service, so it starts automatically on Windows restart.
  3. In the "Licensing" section of the License Statistics configuration file, xflicstat.cfg, set the LM-X license server port (optional) and hostname in the LICENSE_PATH setting. Alternatively, you can use automatic server discovery by setting LICENSE_PATH = AUTODISCOVERY. Optionally, you can set the license limits in the "License limits (floating licensing)" section.
  4. Copy licstat.lic to the end-user tools directory.
  5. Start/restart License Statistics.
