SLM License File

Installation

Introduction
Attached is your new Aspen Technology product license file. This license file is based on the SLM License Management
technology. The following are instructions for the license file installation and SLM system configuration.

Installation
1 Determine/confirm the licensing system type of your new license file:
a For Aspen Technology products, version 2004 or earlier, your Aspen Technology sales contact will be able to tell
you whether you have chosen a Standalone or Network license system.
b If you have installed Aspen Technology 2006 products on your computer or you have upgraded to 2006 SLM
tools, you will have access to an application named SLMLicenseProfiler.exe. By default, this application can be
found in the “<installation-drive>:\Program Files\Common Files\Hyprotech\Shared\” directory.
i. Launch the SLMlicenseProfiler application by either double-clicking the file or by using the Start menu (Start
| Programs | AspenTech | Common Utilities | SLM License Profiler).
ii. Select Local License File as your License Server and browse to the location of your new file.
iii. Click Load Information.
iv. After the license information appears, click View Licenses.
v. In the License Type column, confirm that this new license file is either Standalone or Network.
c If you have not installed Aspen Technology 2006 products, you may be able to determine the licensing system
type by viewing the contents of the license file in Notepad.exe or other text viewer. (This will not work on a fully
encrypted license file.)
2 If you have a Standalone license file:
a Install the new standalone license file:
i. If this new license file replaces an existing license file, we suggest that you remove the current license file
from the system by renaming it. This will ensure that the new license file is the only one on your computer.
The license file(s) are usually found in the “<installation-drive>:\Program Files\Common
Files\Hyprotech\Shared” directory. The current file will be named lservrc_XXX_YYYYY.lic. We suggest that
you rename it to lservrc_XXX_YYYYY.lic.old.
ii. If you already have an Aspen Technology SLM-enabled application installed on your computer, simply
double-click on the new license file to automatically install it.
iii. If you do not have an Aspen Technology SLM-enabled application installed on your computer, save the new
license file to a local hard disk. You will be prompted for the location of the file during the product installation
process.
iv. You can also choose to manually install the license file:
1 Copy the file to “<installation-drive>:\Program Files\Common Files\Hyprotech\Shared\”, then rename its
extension as follows: if the file sent to you is named lservrc_XXX_YYYYY.slf or
lservrc_XXX_YYYYY.aealic, rename it to lservrc_XXX_YYYYY.lic. Note: Only the file extension is
changed.
b Configure the standalone SLM system:
i. When you have installed an Aspen Technology SLM enabled product, you will have access to an
application named SLMConfigWizard.exe. By default this application is located in the “<installation-
drive>:\Program Files\Common Files\Hyprotech\Shared\” directory.

Installation

ii. Launch the SLMConfigWizard.exe application either by double-clicking the file or by using the Start Menu
(Start | Programs | AspenTech | Common Utilities | SLM Configuration Wizard).
iii. At the Will you be connecting to an SLM server over the network prompt, select No. Then click Next.
iv. At the Would you like to configure the advanced settings prompt, select Yes. Then click Next.
v. At the Locking page, browse to the location of the new standalone license file and click Auto Configure to
automatically configure SLM to use this license file.
vi. At the Project Tracking, Windows Terminal Server / Citrix, and Licensing Type pages, click Next to
preserve previously configured options.
vii. Continue with the wizard until it indicates that it has written the new configuration to the registry of your
computer.
viii. The SLM system should now be fully configured to use your new license file.
3 If you have a Network license file:
a Install the new network license file:
i. On the network license server, place a copy of your new license file in the Safenet-SentinelLM network
license server folder (by default, the server is located in the “<Installation-drive>:\Program Files\Rainbow
Technologies\” directory. The directory will also contain the server application called either lservnt.exe or
lserv9x.exe) on the computer where the SLM network license server is installed. Rename this file "lservrc"
(with no extension).
Note: If you already have an lservrc file in that folder, we recommend renaming the existing lservrc file to
“lservrc.bak.”
ii. Start the loadls.exe application (also located in the network license server folder) and use the Remove and
Add buttons to unload and reload the service.
iii. The network license server should now be functioning properly with the new license file. You can check this
by running the WLMAdmin.exe (located in the “<Installation-drive>:\Program Files\Common
Files\Hyprotech\SLM Admin Tools\” directory); your licensed features will be listed.
b Configure the network license server:
i. For further configuration of the SLM Network License server, please refer to the SLM system administration
documentation.
ii. Additional configuration includes:
1 Activation of usage logging with the LSERVOPTS environment variable.
2 Creation and installation of Group Reservation files.

Thank you,
