Specifying the Location of the License File

If you select Mobile Compute (Node-locked) Licensing as your licensing option, use the Enter License File dialog box to specify the location of the license file.



Procedure

  1. Type a path or click Browse to select the path to the license file. The default license file location is C:\MentorGraphics\license_files\license.txt.
    Note:

    If you do not have a copy of your license file, you may click on Download License File to download one (opens in a browser window).

  2. Click Next to validate the license file, and if there are valid Mobile Compute (Node-locked) licenses in the file, those licenses are installed to the <installation_target>\license_files\license.txt file. The full path to this file is added to the MGLS_LICENSE_FILE environment variable. If the MGLS_LICENSE_FILE environment variable already exists, it adds the path to the front of the value (and uses the semi-colon character as the delimiter).

    After license file validation completes, the installation proceeds with“Completing License Configuration”.
