Running the Network License Manager
The Network License Manager is used to configure and manage the license
servers. When you create a deployment, the installer prompts you for
information about the license manager, such as license server model and server
name.
Install the Network License Manager
For Windows, install the Network License Manager from the Install Tools &
Utilities panel of the Autodesk installer. If your product is available on Mac
OS X and Linux, see your product appendix to this guide.
IMPORTANT Do not install the Network License Manager on a remote drive.
When you install the Network License Manager files, you must provide a path to
a local drive. You must specify the drive letter; the universal naming convention
(UNC) is not permitted.
You can install the Network License Manager before or after you install the
products that will use it. Network License Manager must configure the license
servers before any products can obtain licenses and start running.
If an earlier version of the Network License Manager is already installed on
the computer, you should upgrade by installing the new Autodesk Network
License Manager into the folder where the old version was located.
Obtain the Server Host Name and Host ID
Autodesk uses the server host name, host ID, and product serial number to
generate a license file.
To obtain the information, use one of the following procedures.
