About the License File

Usually the lslic utility is used to install the license code in the license file in the same directory in which the license server resides. By default, the license file is named lservrc, and it may contain multiple license codes.

Here are few recommended settings for the license file:

• The default location of the license file is in the default license server directory. It’s best to leave the location of the license file there.
• For non-redundant license servers, the default name of the license file is lservrc. For redundant license servers, the default name of the license file is lservrlf. A redundant license server can service both redundant and non-redundant license codes if both types of license files are available to the license server.
• The license server must have read/write access to the license file when the license installation program is being executed. If you are having a problem installing license codes, then you should verify that the license server has read/write access to the license file.

Tip:

If the license server cannot find the license file and error logging is enabled, it will log the error in the error log file.
