FEATURE and INCREMENT Lines
A floating license file starts with SERVER, VENDOR, and USE_SERVER lines to describe the
license server. Fixed license files do not contain these entries. These license lines are
structured as shown in the following example:
The USE_SERVER line designates the license file as a floating license.
You can configure up to three redundant network license servers with the FLEXlm
licensing scheme. In this case, there are three SERVER lines, one for each license server
machine. The first server specified is the master.
Typically, a license file contains multiple VENDOR lines; one for each required license
vendor daemon. Some license files might use the DAEMON keyword instead of VENDOR.
Table B–1
All Altera license files contain FEATURE, and possibly INCREMENT lines, to describe the
software features that are licensed by the license.dat file. Certain features use
INCREMENT lines, which are structured similarly as FEATURE lines. The FEATURE line is
structured as shown in the following example:
FEATURE <name> <daemon> <version> <expiration> <# of licenses> <authcode>
[<vendor_string>] [<hostid_lock>] [SIGN][SUPERCEDE] [<issuer>]
A backslash (\) character indicates that the FEATURE or INCREMENT line continues on
the next line in the text file. The last line of each FEATURE line does not require the
backslash. Elements in brackets [] are present only in some license FEATURE or
INCREMENT lines.
