Platform Requirements for NVIDIA GRID License Server
• The hosting platform can be a physical or a virtual machine. NVIDIA recommends using a host that
is dedicated only to running the License Server.
•
The hosting platform must run a supported Windows OS.
• The hosting platform must have a constant IP address.
•
The hosting platform must have at least one constant Ethernet MAC address.
• The hosting platform’s date and time must be set accurately.
Installing on Windows
The License Server requires a Java runtime environment and an Apache Tomcat installation. Apache
Tomcat is installed when you use the NVIDIA installation wizard for Windows.
Step 1 Download and install the latest Java 32-bit runtime environment from
https://www.oracle.com/downloads/index.html .
Note Install the 32-bit Java Runtime Environment, regardless of whether your platform is Windows
32-bit or 64-bit.
Step 2 Create a server interface:
a.
On the NVIDIA Software Licensing Center dialog, click Grid Licensing > Create License Server.
b. On the Create Server dialog, fill in your desired server details.
c.
Save the .bin file that is generated onto your license server for installation.
Step 3 Unzip the NVIDIA License Server installer Zip file that you downloaded previously and run
setup.exe
.
Step 4 Accept the EULA for the NVIDIA License Server software and the Apache Tomcat software. Tomcat is
installed automatically during the License Server installation.
Step 5 Use the installer wizard to step through the installation.
Note On the Choose Firewall Options dialog, select the ports to be opened in the firewall. NVIDIA
recommends that you use the default setting, which opens port 7070 but leaves port 8080 closed.
Step 6 Verify the installation. Open a web browser on the License Server host and connect to the URL
http://localhost:8080/licserver. If the installation was successful, you see the NVIDIA License Client
Manager interface.
