12. Ensure that the License Path box points to an existing license server in the form of
@, such as 5280@corporatelicenseserver. The
value is updated in the CDS_LIC_FILE environment variable.
Note: If you have multiple license servers and you want to access all of them, you can
specify the port and host information for each of the license server delimited by a semi-
colon (;) as follows:
port1@host1;port1@host2;port1@host3
For example:
5280@sunny;5280@blue;5280@sky
If your license server has a fault-tolerant server configuration, you can specify the port
and host information for each server separated by a comma as follows:
port@host1,port@host2,port@host3
For example:
5280@sunny,5280@blue,5280@sky
Tip
You can get the license path information from the Cadence license file. The license
path is specified by the SERVER keyword in the following form:
SERVER
For example, in the line SERVER corporatelicenseserver 83065c2 5280,
corporatelicenseserver is the host name and 5280 is the port number.
Caution
If you edit the License Path box, ensure that the value is correct because
the new value will overwrite the original CDS_LIC_FILE value.
