Running License Daemon using LMTOOLS (Windows)

The License Manager can be configured to run automatically as a Windows service by using the LMTOOLS program.

Configuring a service requires Administrator privileges.

The required steps are as follows:

Execute the LMTOOLS program at
install\license\bin\bin.i386nt\lmtools.exe
Click the Configuration using Services radio button.
Click the Config Services tab.
In the Service Name, type the name of the service that you want to define, VNI License Manager.
In the Path to the lmgrd.exe file field, enter or browse to lmgrd.exe for this license server. It is at install\license\bin\bin.i386nt\lmtools.exe.
In the Path to the license file field, enter or browse to the license file for this license server.
In the Path to the debug log file, enter or browse to the debug log file that this license server writes. Prepending the debug log file name with the + character appends logging entries.
Check the Use Services check box to make this license manager a Windows service.
Check the Start Server at Power Up check box to start at system startup time.
Click the Save Service button to save the new VNI License Manager service.
