TotalView Installation Guide : Installing or Changing a Regular License : Planning for a Regular License : Choosing a License Server
Choosing a License Server
You will need to install the FLEXlm license server the first time you install a regular license. In most cases, the license manager and TotalView reside on the same system. However, you can install them on different systems.
The license manager should reside on a machine that is reliable, always running, and a permanent part of your local network. And, most importantly, it is accessible. For example, do not place it on the other side of your firewall.
*If you already have a FLEXlm license manager in your network, you should not include your TotalView license with the other licenses managed by that license manager. If you must combine license managers, consult the FLEXlm documentation.
*The TCP/IP port number used for the Rogue Wave license manager daemon must be unique and not used elsewhere. You can find port numbers that other FLEXlm license managers use in their license files.
