Combining Licenses

You may combine the Sonnet licensing information with other applications using FlexNet. You can either use a single lmgrd with multiple license files or a single lmgrd with a single license file. Refer to our FlexNet Guides for a detailed description of FlexNet. Before attempting to combine license files, you should be very familiar with this manual.

When combining license files, you must use a single license manager daemon (lmgrd). You can not use Sonnet Suites with an earlier version of lmgrd, therefore you must use the most recent version of lmgrd.

In general, we suggest that you do not combine Sonnet’s license with other vendor’s licenses. If, however, you wish to combine the licenses, we suggest that you first run Sonnet Suites separately from other FlexNet applications to verify that you have a good license and that the license manager works. Then you can combine the licenses.

Once you have combined the licenses, you must set the SONNETD_LICENSE_FILE variable to point to the location of the “sonnet.lic” file.
