Trying to figure out how to configure a secondary lic server in linux. I know its possible for windows, wasn’t sure how this is done in Linux.

2 dongles 1 cup.

Thanks!

i don’t really understand…in my case one lic server is recognizing both dongles on linux…maybe i got your question wrong…

EDIT: if you are looking for the file where you setup your lic server IP adresses then search for vrlclient.xml

Where does that file live under linux? We don’t have that file on the system anywhere under Fedora core 14.

Thanks

you can put this file anywhere you want…just point to it’s directory using the VRAY_AUTH_CLIENT_FILE_PATH env variable ( Chaos: Industry-leading design and visualization software )

a sample content is here:


<VRLClient>
<LicServer>
<Host>your.server.com</Host>
<Port>30304</Port>
<Host1>localhost</Host1>
<Port1>30304</Port1>
<!Proxy></!Proxy>
<!ProxyPort>0</!ProxyPort>
<User></User>
<Pass></Pass>
</LicServer>
</VRLClient>

On Linux the file is in a .ChaosGroup directory inside the home directly of the current user (note the dot at the start of the name). You can also use the setvrlservice tool to set the servers (it just modifies the .xml file, but might be somewhat more convenient).
