Cadence license manager

cadence license manager 5280

I'm trying to run Cadence IC5033 on a new linux server using licenses stored in a Unix workstation. The workstation is connected through the internal network. Currently I'm running IC 5033 on the Unix workstation, but I'm going to run simulation jobs on the linux server due to speed issue.
If I run IC 5033 on the linux server using licenses in the Unix workstation, how do I set up the environment on the linux server?

And is there anyone who knows how to setup NFS between Unix and Linux systems?

For the license issue, you have to set the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable to point at the UNIX workstation, like this (if you have C shell):

setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE port@licenseserver

or use (if you have bash)

export LM_LICENSE_FILE=port@licenseserver

where licenseserver is the host name of the unix workstation and port is 5280 or 5281 I think by default.

About NFS I think you should try a linux site , like https://www.tldp.org or read the man files. Also I'm not clear, do you want to export directories from the linux or the unix machine? From what I remember the user should have the same ID number on both the unix and linux machine.

Good luck!
