Starting the license server daemon Starting the license server daemon Locating the license file When the license manager daemon is started, it must be able to find the license file. The default location is /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat. You can change where the daemon looks for the license file by one of two methods: • By starting the license manager using the -c <pathname> option. • By setting the LM_LICENSE_FILE (p54) environment variable to the path of the file. More information about installing ModelSim and using a license file is available in Model Technology’s Start Here for ModelSim guide, see "Where to find our documentation" (p30), or email us at [email protected]. Controlling the license file search By default, VSIM checks for the existence of both Model Technology and Mentor Graphics generated licenses. When VSIM is invoked it will first locate and use any available MTI licenses, then search for MGC licenses as needed. You can set one of the following vsim command (p91) switches to narrow the search to exclude or include specific licenses. license option Description -lic_nomgc excludes any MGC licenses from the search -lic_nomti excludes any MTI licenses from the search -lic_vlog searches only for ModelSim EE/VLOG licenses -lic_vhdl searches only for ModelSim EE/VHDL licenses -lic_plus searches only for ModelSim EE/PLUS licenses The options may be specified with the License (p420) variable in the modelsim.ini file; see the [vsim] section (p419).
