Start lmgrd by a user other than “root”, since processes started by root can introduce security risks. Prepending debug_log_path with the + character appends logging entries. debug_log_path is the full path to the debug log file.Lmgrd -c license_file_list -L debug_log_path
Start lmgrd from the UNIX command line using the following syntax: If you do not do this, you lose all the advantages of having redundant servers, since the file server holding these files becomes a single point of failure. If you are running three-server redundant license servers, maintain a separate copy of the license file (as well as the lmgrd and the vendor daemons binaries) on each server node. Note: Start lmgrd only on the server node specified on the SERVER line in the license file. Both methods are discussed in the following sections.
The license manager daemon, lmgrd, is started either manually on the command line or automatically at system startup. If any licenses in the license file are counted (license count > 0), the license manager daemon, and hence the license server, must be started before the FLEXlm licensed application can be used. 6.2 Starting the License Manager Daemon on UNIX Platforms
