LDRA Test tools: Configuring ports

The FlexLM server uses two ports to communicate. 

• First available port between 27000 and 27009
• Randomly selected every time the server is restarted. 

Steps

These ports can be specified by editing the license.dat file.

1. Stop the license server to change the ports used.

2. Run:

• Windows: Stop_licenseserver.ba
• Linux: Stop_licenseserver.sh

 3. Add the first port to the SERVER line:

SERVER fangtooth 123aaa456bbb 27005

4. Add the second port to the VENDOR line:

VENDOR LDRA port=1234

 5. Start the server and view the ldra.log file to view the updated ports.
