To set the license file environment variable:
1. Set the license variable to include your license file or point to your license server:
% setenv SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE ${SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE}:<my_license_file|port@host>
or
% setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE ${LM_LICENSE_FILE}:<my_license_file|port@host>
Attention
2. Verify the license setup:
% echo $LM_LICENSE_FILE
% lmstat -c $LM_LICENSE_FILE -f <LICENSE_NAME>
or
% echo $SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE
% lmstat -c $SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE -f <LICENSE_NAME>
Use these commands to check the license setup for all of your component's required licenses
