        SERVER HOSTNAME HOSTID PORT

        
    

Launch the license server

Start the license server with:

    

        
        
            lmgrd -c license_file
        
    

See the FlexNet for Arm Tools License Management Guide for full options.

            set ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE=port@server
        
    

Linux

    

        
        
            export ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE=port@server
        
    

Activate via tools IDE

The license can also be activated in the various Arm tool IDEs.

For example Arm Development Studio ), via Help > Arm License Manager. You will need to specify the appropriate Development Studio Edition as the Active Product.

            armcc --vsn
