4 When you receive your license via e-mail from Keysight Technologies,
carefully read the instructions sent with the license. If the license is a
"served" or "floating" license, put it in the directory
C:\Program Files\
Agilent\licensing
on the license server.
Creating a New License Service Using lmadmin.exe
1 To access the lmadmin
license server management
interface, open a
Web browser and navigate to http://<server>:8080, where <server> is
the name of the computer on which the
license server
is running. For
this first-time configuration, you need to be logged on to the license
server computer, so you can just navigate to
http://localhost:8080
.
2 Select the
Administration
tab.
3 Log in. If you have not previously set up a login, sign in as user
"
admin
"
with password
"
admin
"
. You will then be required to change the
password (don’t forget this password).
4 Select the
Vendor Daemon Configuration
tab.
5 Select
Import License
.
6 Browse to the new floating license file. You can only choose one file at
this step, so if you have more than one
license
file, then pick one of
them and click
Import License
.
7 An
Import Error
and an
Import Warning
will be displayed indicating
that it can’t find the
Agilent.exe
file. Click
OK
.
8 Select the “Keysight” vendor daemon and click
Administer
.
9 Change the
License File or Directory
to “licenses\Agilent” instead of
the file you specified above. This will enable you to easily add more
license
files.
NOTE
If the browser cannot find the web page, then the lmadmin service may
not be running on the server. Go to Start > Control Panel > Administrative
Tools > Services, find “lmadmin” and Start the service. After starting the
service, refresh or try navigating the browser to the Web page again.
NOTE
To add more license files, perform the following steps.
