Starting the License Manager when the System Boots

If you want the license manager to start automatically when the license server boots, add the toolworks_init command (see Starting the License Manager Manually) to the appropriate system start-up file. On most systems, you also should automatically stop the license manager when the system shuts down to single-user mode.

You can edit your startup files by running the Configure_Autostart shell script. Configure_Autostart must be run as root. For example, if the license manager software is in the /usr/local/toolworks directory, run Configure_Autostart using the following commands. (Before entering these commands, use the su shell command to become the root user.)

cd /usr/local/toolworks/flexlm-6.1
./bin/Configure_Autostart

Configure_Autostart prompts you with some configuration questions and then makes its changes.
