Can I use another port for the proxy server

Note: The license files for the proxy are in folder /opt/flexlm/bin. There are two license files: atflexd-proxy.lic and proxy.lic. Via these license files the license server process lmgrd starts two vendor daemons:

  1. atflexd for the T2K licenses
  2. socbu for the 93k licenses

If the customer wants to use another port for the lmgrd process of the proxy server or another port for the socbu / atflexd vendor daemon, then the files in folder /opt/flexlm/bin

  • atflexd-proxy.lic
  • proxy.lic

need to be adapted with the appropriate port number on the SERVER line(s) for the lmgrd process and on the VENDOR line for the appropriate vendor daemon process on all used proxy license servers. So if the setup is an FNX triad, the port numbers need to be adapted on all three license servers.

Please always adapt both license files. The license server will run into errors, if you use for example different port numbers for the lmgrd process in file proxy.lic than in atflexd-proxy.lic.
