FlexNet Embedded Local License Server Components Using SysV on Linux

Component

Description

flexnetls.jar

The Java executable file for the FlexNet Embedded local license server.

producer-settings.xml

The configuration file, generated by the producer, that defines policies for license server operations. Some of these settings can be overridden using the FlexNet License Server Administrator command-line tool or the FlexNet License Server Manager.

flexnetls

The shell script used to start the FlexNet Embedded local license server when the service is installed under a SysV init runlevel system.

configure

A utility used to generate and edit a local settings file that contains information needed to run the license server in your local environment. This file is used only when the service is installed under a SysV init runlevel system.

Truststore file provided by producer

Optional file containing root and intermediate certificates used to validate an HTTPS connection to FlexNet Operations.

If the producer is using the Revenera-hosted version of FlexNet Operations, no truststore file is required.

If the producer is using the “on-premises” version of FlexNet Operations and the server certificate has been signed by an unknown (private) certificate authority, then the truststore file is required.

regid.2009-06.com(...).swidtag

The software ID tag file for use with software asset management tools.
• backofficeofflinesynctool 
• serverofflinesynctool 

(Optional) The set of tools allowing the license server to perform offline synchronization to the back office. The software producer determines whether to provide these tools.

The tools also require the flxPublicTools.jar, EccpressoAll.jar, and commons-codec-1.9.jar files.
• flexnetlsadmin.sh 
• flexnetlsadmin.jar 

(Optional) Files used to run the FlexNet License Server Administrator command-line tool. The software producer determines whether to provide this tool.

flexnet-flsm-linux-<version>.tar.gz

(Optional) The FlexNet License Server Manager is provided as a separate package. The software producer determines whether to provide this tool.

The zip file contains the following files:

• flsm.war file needed to run the FlexNet License Server Manager
• preconfigureFLSM.sh, an optional utility that takes the license server’s hostname and port as arguments to preset the corresponding communications settings in the FlexNet License Server Manager. Then, when the License Server Manager starts, it is configured to communicate with the desired license server. (Otherwise, you can use only the License Server Manager’s user interface to update these communication settings.)

fne.war

(Optional) The file needed to migrate your custom legacy server administration tool to the FlexNet Embedded local license server. The software producer determines whether to provide this tool.

• bin directory
• install-vm-only.sh
• Readme.text

(Optional) Special set of files needed to run FNLicensingService, a service used to capture the VM-UUID on those Linux virtual platforms that do provide an appropriate mechanism for retrieving this ID. If you intend for your local license server to run on such a virtual Linux platform and require it to use the VM-UUID as its hostid, consult the software producer for further instructions.
