To setup a floating license for License Statistics, you must configure and start the LM-X license server and correctly configure License Statistics. 

  1. Configure the LM-X license server by specifying needed settings for your environment in the configuration file lmx-serv.cfg, which is located in the license directory. Be sure to correctly set the path to the license file in the LICENSE_FILE setting. See License Server Configuration file in the LM-X documentation.

  2. Start the LM-X license server. (For Windows: , after verifying that everything your setup is working, the LM-X server should be installed as a service, so it starts automatically on every Windows restart) . See Installing a license server on Windows in the LM-X documentation.

  3. Set LM-X server port (optionally) and hostname in LICENSE_PATH variable. Alternatively LM-X server automatic discovery can be used by setting: LICENSE_PATH = AUTODISCOVERY 

  4. Optionally it is possible to split one license into several smaller. This should be helpful for having two instances of License Statistics, e.g. one production and one test installation.
