You must upgrade LM-X in order to get a newer version of the software, or after subscription renewal to avoid software expiration.
To upgrade to a newer version of LM-X:
- Download the LM-X SDK distribution.
- Important: 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. (Be sure to refer to the latest release notes for release-specific information regarding updating the security configuration file.) Also copy your existing lmxserverconf.c file to the config directory if you made changes to this file.
- Install the LM-X SDK on Windows or Unix.
- Replace the old LM-X files with the new files to complete the upgrade.
Important: Do not mix files between different distributions. - Recompile and test your application with the new version of LM-X.
Note: After upgrading, your existing deployed client applications and existing license files should continue to work with the new version, as described in Version compatibility.
