service. Then, on the Server Status tab of LMTOOLS, select Display Everything, and click Perform
Status Enquiry.

Combining Network License Files

If you already have a license server running for another Autodesk product (such as AutoCAD 2009 or AutoCAD
Architecture), you need to combine your Revit Architecture license file with your existing license file.
Before attempting this procedure, see
To add licenses to the license server, you can either combine the license files into one file, or put all of the
license files into one folder and then point the license server to that folder, not to a specific file.
To combine license files for Autodesk products into one license file, edit the existing license file and add
lines from the new license file to the existing license file. To edit the existing license file, copy all of the
lines from the Revit Architecture license file, starting at the line beginning with "INCREMENT", into the
existing license file.
When adding licenses of the same Autodesk product to your license file, you must obtain a new license file
for the total number of licenses for that feature code, not just the new ones. For example, do not combine
two different Revit Architecture license files into one file. Obtain one new license file that contains the
required total number of Revit Architecture seats.
If the server computer has more than one network adapter installed, all Autodesk products should be bound
to the same adapter.
