Overview Reference
The Four Js License Manager (FLM) and License Controller (fglWrt and greWrt) version are compatible with Genero 4.00. No additional reference.
The Four Js License Manager (FLM) and License Controller (fglWrt or greWrt) version 6.00 are compatible with Genero 3.20. See Configure compatibility for Genero prior to 4.01
There are enhancements to how the license controller and the DVM synchronize; the communication between the license controller and the FLM is more effective. No additional reference.
Each license controller has a dedicated license controller configuration file (fgllicense, grelicense); Genero license controller configuration is no longer implemented by fglprofile. See:
There are log configuration enhancements, including options to configure log categories and generate debug logs. Log file names are identified by the license controller name; for example, fglwrt.log. See License logs
Four Js delivers a license string encoding the license details (to include the license number, license key, maintenance number, and login name.) You can install the license using the fglWrt --install-license-string option, pasting the string to install the license.
Tip:

You can create a license string from your existing license details using the fglWrt --encode-license-string option.

See License Controller (fglWrt) and License Controller (greWrt)
