Each product you add to LAC must have a license generator specified for it before you can generate licenses for the product.
You add and manage license generators using the License Generators tab from the Administration page. The License Generators tab includes a grid that shows information for license generators that have been added to LAC, as described in the table below.
The Action column in the License Generators grid lets you edit, download, and delete existing license generators. After you have added a license generator, you must download it by clicking the Download icon 
in the Action column.
The license generators that are listed in the License Generators grid are included in the list of license generators available for selection when you create or edit a product.
To create a new license generator, click Create License Generator in the License Generators tab. The settings for license generators include the following. All fields are required unless noted.
Field | Description |
|---|---|
License Manager | The license manager you will use for license generation. LAC currently supports LM-X License Manager, FlexNet Publisher, and Reprise License Manager. Note that the other settings you define for the License Generator vary depending on which license manager you use, as noted in the field descriptions below. |
Name | A descriptive name for the generator (e.g., LM-X v4.1). |
Vendor Daemon Name | This field is included only if you selected FlexNet as the license generator type. The vendor daemon name defaults to "demo." |
ISV Daemon Name | This field is included only if you selected Reprise as the license generator type. The ISV daemon name defaults to "demo." |
License Generator Platform | The operating system the license generator runs on (Windows 32-bit/64-bit or Linux 32-bit/64-bit). |
Executable | The license generator executable (e.g., xmllicgen.exe). You must browse for, select and upload this file (the path cannot be typed into this field). Note that xmllicgen files compiled with MinGW are not supported at this time, so if you select a MinGW-complied xmllicgen file, you will get an error in this field. |
LM-X Security Configuration File | This field is included only if you selected LM-X as the license generator type.
|
Command-line Parameters | The set of parameters used to call the license generator. This value differs depending on the license generator type selected and is not modifiable. |
Optional parameters | This field is optional, and lets you specify any additional parameters for calling the license generator executable. |
Description | This field is optional, and lets you add a description for the license generator. |
