36.15.4. Install FLM licenses

  1. Before installation the licenses are displayed with status "PASSIVE".

    In PARTadmin select the category License administration -> FLM server.[227]

    Install FLM licenses on the Licenses index page.

    Click on Add file....

    In Windows Explorer select the license file and transfer it.

    -> The license file is displayed under File.

  2. Now click on Save....

    -> -> The license is automatically saved in the correct directory..

    [Note]Note

    The installed FLM license now is found on the CADENAS FLM server under <drive letter>:\ProgramData\cadenas_flm\partsolutions\setup\lic\keys.

    Storage location of Nodelocked licenses however is in the PARTsolutions installation under %cadenas_setup%!

    Background information:

    In the installation path of the CADENAS FLM server (for example, C:\cadenas_flm) you can find the file start.env with the startup settings of the environment variables.

    Although the environment variables of the FLM server have the same name as in the PARTsolutions installation, they refer to different directories!

    [ENVIRONS]
    CADENAS=%DirOfThisFile%
    CADENAS_SETUP=%ALLUSERSPROFILE%/cadenas_flm/partsolutions/setup
    CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER=$CADENAS_SETUP/user/default_user
    CADENAS_USER=%APPDATA%/cadenas_flm

    If you want to copy the license yourself, please ensure you have the correct path.

    After the license installation now one computer is displayed as MASTER, possibly available further computers as BACKUP.




[227] Use the downgraded PARTadmin directly at the license server or the PARTadmin from the PARTsolutions installation.
