the location recommended when you configured your license server, for

following string in Terminal.

Set Up and Use an Options File
With an options file, you set configuration options that determine how a
license server manages licenses. An options file sets parameters that the license
file reads and the lmgrd program executes.
The options file on each server specifies the license-handling behavior for that
server. By managing the contents of the options files, you can specify the
same behavior on all license servers, or implement particular differences among
the servers.
NOTE For options file changes to take effect on a license server, you must save
the options file, and then reread the license file.
Use the options file to set parameters for the following server-related features:
Report log file
License borrowing
License timeout
You can also set up advanced license parameters, such as reserving a license,
restricting license usage, or defining groups of users. To learn more about
setting advanced options file parameters, see the FLEXnet documentation.
This documentation is installed on the license server, in the Network License
Manager directory.
