Can FlexLM License server(lmadmin-x64_n6-11.18.3.1) be installed on Windows Server 2008

Hi,

I need few clarification:

1. Can FlexLM License server- version: lmadmin-x64_n6-11.18.3.1 be installed on Windows Server 2008? If not, please suggest which version can be installed.

2. The licenses(node/floating) generated on machine having Windows 10, will this license work on license server running on Windows Server 2008?

Also, if you can suggest which document to refer for system requirement to install license server would be beneficial.

Thanks

Ashish

Hi @ashish01 please find the attached FNP 11.18.3 Release notes, you can find Tested Platforms for lmadmin on the page #31 

Yes, if the license server is installed on a supported Windows server then checkout from windows 10 will work as well. 

Note:- It is a best practice to run license servers on a server-based OS. Let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks @mrathinam for quick reply,

I can see in the document FNP 11.18.3 Release notes, lmadmin-x64_n6-11.18.3.1 is not tested on Windows server 2008 platform. Does that mean it will not run on this OS?

Also for second point, can license be checkout from Windows Server 2008 if the license is generated through Windows 10 OS?

 

Thanks

Ashish

Hi @ashish01 Yes, you are right. 

Yes, as a client "windows server 2008" will checkout the license. Please test and confirm.
