MATLAB Installation Guide for Windows

Running MATLAB with Other FLEXlm Applications

If you have another application that uses FLEXlm for license management, you can share a single license manager, or run separate license managers either on the same or different hosts. (For more information, go to the Support page at the MathWorks Web site and see Technical Support solution 20746.)

Sharing a Single License Manager

To share a license manager, combine the DAEMON and INCREMENT lines from both License Files into a single License File. Use only one of the SERVER lines and install the license manager on that host. If MATLAB and the other application are using different versions of the FLEXlm software, run the newer version of the license server.

For further information, see the GLOBEtrotter Web page at www.globetrotter.com or the FLEXlm End User Manual, available in PDF form in $MATLAB\flexlm\enduser.pdf.

Running Separate License Managers

To run separate license managers, use separate License Files. If you are running the license managers on the same host, be sure to use a different TCP port number on the SERVER line in each License File.
