Installing A Golaem License Server
Please note that you only need to set up a license server to use a floating license. This license type is available to customers, not to evaluators.
If you already have a RLM license server running
Send us the MAC address of the server, and we will send you a .lic and .set to install on your server

Installing the server as a service
At this point, if you close your session, or end the command window, the server will stop providing license to your users. The best way to run this server is to run it as a service (or daemon).-
it can be installed as as a windows service using the following command, from the license server installation directory:
rlm -install_service -service_name GolaemCrowdLicenseServer -dlog C:\temp\GolaemCrowdRLM.log
-
The windows service can be deleted using the following command, from the license server installation directory:
rlm -delete_service -service_name GolaemCrowdLicenseServer
-
it can be installed as as a windows service using the following command, from the license server installation directory:
For license server running under Linux, please check your operating system specific documentation to know how to launch an executable as a daemon.
Give users access to the server
The Golaem Crowd users will use the license file "…_user.lic" file that you received from Golaem. Users can then register this file at Golaem Crowd installation, or afterwards using the Golaem License Tool.
If you did not provide your server host name to Golaem you must set it in the user licence file, replacing the ServerHostName string
