Sonnet Suites uses FLEXnet Licensing 11.16.2.1. You must be cautious if you plan to combine Sonnet Suites with other vendor licenses. 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.
The Sonnet graphical tools, such as xgeom, and emvu, all have time-out enabled. If these programs are not used in 15 minutes, another user may check out the timed-out license. The default time-out period can be changed using the FLEXnet licensing TIMEOUT feature stored in the options file.
If the “sonnet.lic” file is stored in “$SONNET_DIR/licenses” directory, then all Sonnet programs internally set the SONNETD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable to “$SONNET_DIR/licenses/sonnet.lic”. Therefore, the users do not have to set this environment variable. If the “sonnet.lic” file is moved to a different directory, then this variable must be set.
