cadence license problem

hello everyone,
I have a problem and hope somebody can help me. Our server computer is
shutdown because of electric faulty. Then after that, all the client
computer can get license from the server computer. Only server computer
has the license and the other computer can not archieve it. So , how to
set up again to make the client get it own license again. thank for
read my message

 

Bring up the server machine. Then try running ...

lmgrd -c <licenseFile.txt>


The above command would bring-up all the licenses for use. "lmgrd"
would be available in <toolsInstallDir>/bin directory. Hope this helps.

 

hello,
thank for your help, however the command that you give only to up the
server license, after run that command there are several command such
as the process by admin

admin 5456
admin 5644

for your information our lab using linux os, so the client still didnt
get get the license, i hope that anybody can help it

You cannot do anything until your license server becomes available.
Floating licenses like you have are locked to one specific server
machine. You cannot serve them from any other machine. This prevents
people from running multiple license servers with the same licenses,
effectively increasing their license count.

 

Hi,

The information you give is not clear at all. If you have a linux
machine please post the following:

output of the commands
ps axuwww|grep lmgrd
ps axuwww|grep cdsld

Log of the license server. Either copy and paste from the standard
output or from the file you are redirecting it to (either through
redirection or command line switch).

Output of

lmstat -c <license file>

from both the server and the client machines. If the client machine
can not "see" the file through the NFS file system you will have to use
lmstat -c port@server where port can be found in the log file and server
is the license server.

With this can diagnose 99% of the problems. Make sure that firewall
and friends actually allow the client to get licenses and that the
cadence software that you are using is compatible with the cadence
licenses that you have.

Good luck,
Stefano
