i believe publisher keys can be generated by us. however publisher id, is it specified in toolkit somewhere or share by other medium (email).

i have just noticed that in the feature it says 'INCREMENT ADD demo...' however the vendor daemon i am running is named lgcx. can this be the reason for the ADD feature not working. i can change the demo to lgcx in ASR but how will i be able to generate new signature for it. Thanks,

When you run servercomptranutil -vl are you able to see "Add" being served .Can you share the output ? when i start server, i get this message in log 10:50:22 (lgcx) (@lgcx-SLOG@) FlexNet Licensing Service Version: 11.16.5.1 10:50:22 (lgcx) (@lgcx-SLOG@) Is TS accessed: Yes 10:50:22 (lgcx) (@lgcx-SLOG@) TS access time: Fri Sep 17 2021 10:50:22 Coordinated Universal Time 10:50:22 (lgcx) (@lgcx-SLOG@) Number of VD restarts since LS startup: 0 when running servercomptranutil -vl i get following response. it does mention ADD feature may be i am doing some wring configuration.

Hi, trying to evaluate the trusted storage option for flexera publisher. i was able to load ASR in trusted storage. then configured and ran the vendor daemon as well.from the browser i was able to see that fulfullment is also available. however when i ran lmflex exe to checkout ADD i get the error. "no such feature exists" i tried the lmflex with "f1" and this time it worked, but i can see this is provided in token license file to start the vendor daemon. vendor daemon is not able to get feature from the trusted storage. running servercomptranutil also gives expected result and shows 10 hybrid licenses. need some help with this step

How would the license file look after doing this? would it be COMPOSITE=VDH=XXXXXXXX or does this mean, either (Composite or VDH) can be use, but not both at the same time? is it possible to use VDH type inside composite like in code int ret; int hostid_list[] = {HOSTID_ETHER, VENDEF_ID_TYPE}; int hostid_list_count = 2; int errno; and it is calculated form the routine automatically?

venu_gopal · ‎Aug 23, 2021

That sounds good. So, in case we use CompositeId, for example for linux CompositeId=HOSTID_ETHER, VM_UUID, VDH for PC CompositeId=HOSTID_MAC, VM_GENID, VDH would that work for both virutualized and non-virtualized enviornemnts. on non-virtualized env;s having VM_UUID wont cause any issues and would simply be empty is my understanding correct. i am asking because otherwise i would have to provide multiple utilities to end user so that he can generate compositeid for the target machine.

Hi, wanted to use vendor defined id, and i was able to run the example program supploed with the toolkit (uses hardcoded vendor defined id). my understanding from reading the documentation is that we can use the c++ routine to uniquely identify the physical machine. and that id would work same way as normal HOSTId and COMPOSITEID works (apart from using specific keywork for vendor defined id as specified in code file) is it a good idea to get machine hdd serial number and mac address and use that as vendor defined id? is there any pitfall i should be aware of, before investing more time and energy setting up vendor defined id? Many Thanks,

venu_gopal · ‎Aug 13, 2021

vendor defined id can be used. what do you mean by certificate based licensing?

Hi, is it possible to restrict the application usage to a region (i.e. europe, or country) using flex licensing? Thanks,

venu_gopal · ‎Aug 11, 2021

Thank you for the information. would VM_GENID also work for physical machines? both windows and linux? right now for windows we can use ETHER, DISK_SERIAL_NUM as combination, but for linux there doesn't seem to be any relatively harder combination. apart from mac address, HOSTNAME, IPv4, IPv6 are very easy to spoof. Is it possible to have HDD manufacturers serial number for both windows and linux os? or some way we can add a routine to get the HDD manufacturers serial number and use it.

Hi, we are using mac address as host id, however we identified a vulnerability, where same mac address can be assigned to another machine(specially vms). to resolve this vulnerability we are evaluating using composite id. however there are few concerns from reading the documentation. 1. is it possible to use HOSTID_ETHER and DISK_SERIAL_NUM for both Windows and Linux enviornments? (documentation says DISK_SERIAL_NUM is only available for windows) 2. Also DISK serial number is volume serial number or hdd manufacturers serial number? if its volume serial number, it will again be easily changed or copied to another machine and we'll have the same vulnerability. can you suggest/help in right direction. Thanks,

Hello! If I use vendor host id, would this be backward compatible with HOSTID? is there a way to make it compatible ? Thanks!

Hi, Keeping license server issue aside, It is surprising that even the stand alone license checkout is not working when connected to VPN. How can I troubleshoot why the standalone checkouts are failing? Thanks!

venu_gopal · ‎Mar 10, 2021

Hello! When i try to checkout a license (using server or file based) when using VPN, the checkouts are not happening. If I don't connect to VPN then there is no issue either with standalone or server based checkouts. did any one face similar issue with any resolution? --Thanks
