Installing Client Based Licenses (Node-Locked)

If you do not have received your license key and license file, read Obtaining a License before continuing.

Windows
  1. Install the TASKING product and follow the instructions that appear on your screen.

    The installation program asks you to enter the license information.

  2. In the License Key field enter the license key you have received from TASKING and click Next to continue.

    The installation program tries to retrieve the license information from a remote license server. Wait until the license information is retrieved. If the license information is retrieved successfully subsequent dialogs are already filled-in and you only have to confirm the contents of the dialogs by clicking the Next button. If the license information is not retrieved successfully you have to enter the information by hand.

  3. Select Node-locked client based license and click Next to continue.

  4. In the License File Contents field enter the contents of the license file you have received from TASKING.

    The license data is stored in the file licfile.txt in the etc directory of the product (<install_dir>\etc).

  5. Click Next and follow the rest of the instructions to complete the installation.

Linux
  1. Install the TASKING product and put the license file licfile.txt you have received from TASKING in the directory <install-dir>/<product-name>/etc. For example, if you installed a SmartCode product in /opt, the path is /opt/SmartCode/etc

  2. After installation of the TASKING product, the license options file licopt.txt is present in the directory <install-dir>/<product-name>/etc. Edit this file with a text editor:

    1. Change the line:

      TSK_LICENSE_KEY_SW260800 = 0000-0000-0000-0000

      Replace 0000-0000-0000-0000 with the license key you obtained from TASKING.

    2. Change the line:

      #TSK_LICENSE_FILE_SW260800 = licfile.txt

      to:

      TSK_LICENSE_FILE_SW260800=/opt/SmartCode/etc/licfile.txt

      Specify the absolute path to the file licfile.txt.

  3. Set the environment variable TSK_OPTIONS_FILE_<Product-Code><version> to the absolute location of licopt.txt. For example:

    TSK_OPTIONS_FILE_SW260800v10_3r1=/opt/SmartCode/etc/licopt.txt
    export TSK_OPTIONS_FILE_SW260800v10_3r1
