Softimage license server conflicts with other product license server

Issue

When you start the Softimage license server, one of your other license servers stops. And if you restart the other license server, then the Softimage license server stops.

Solution

Use a specific port for each product license. By default, LMTOOLs uses a random port in the range 27000-27009, and sometimes it uses the same port for two license servers.


To use a specific port for a license:


  1. Use Notepad or another text editor (do not use Microsoft Word), to edit each license file.
  2. Add a port number to the end of the SERVER line.  For example:
     
    SERVER servername1 123456abcdef 27001

    In this example, the port 27001 will always be used for the license server.
