Configuration of the license controller

To configure your license controller for License Manager, on the server where the DVM is installed, edit its configuration file.

In order for the Four Js License Manager (FLM) to manage Genero product licenses, each product's DVM configuration file needs to be configured locally as described in this topic:
Important: Licensing for Genero Report Writer for Java, C# and PHP must be managed locally as it can not be managed by the License Manager. For more details on local licensing see Genero Licensing User Guide.
Tip:

The DVM configuration file, for example $FGLDIR/etc/fglprofile, can be automatically updated with FLM server details when installing Genero on a Unix™ platform, as long as the FLM is installed, and the option to use the FLM is selected at time of installation.

DVM Configuration

Values for the resources flm.server, flm.license.number, and flm.license.key are required if you want to use FLM.

Table 1. Virtual Machine - License Server Configuration
Resource Default Value Description
flm.server none Name of the machine that holds the license service program. You must set this value to use Four Js License Manager from this machine.
flm.license.number none Value of your current license number.

(For example: XXX#XXXXXXXX)

flm.license.key none Value of your current license key.

(For example: YYYYYYYYYYYY)

flm.service 6399 Service or port number for the communication between the local license controller and Four Js License Manager. This value should be the same as in the Four Js License Manager configuration file, $FLMDIR/etc/lmprofile. See Configuring the License Manager.
flm.check 10 Number of iterations between two controls of the user list. Default is 10.
flm.ps ps -ae Specifies the command that gives a process list for a machine. This value is used to synchronize the real user list on the current machine with the registered users list on Four Js License Manager.
Warning: This entry is not used on most platforms as the default value ps -ae is replaced by a call to an API. This resource should not be set unless the internal implementation relying on OS specific API calls fail.
