    Hi Nik

    Just to confirm that you are indeed holding ver6.1 licenses, you might want to do more checking using the following cmd:

    unix>lmdiag -c port@serverName licenseFeature

    E.g.
    unix>lmdiag -c 5280@abc Virtuoso_Layout_Suite_L
    unix>lmdiag -c 5280@abc Virtuoso_Layout_Suite_XL
    unix>lmdiag -c 5280@abc Virtuoso_Layout_Suite_GXL
    unix>lmdiag -c 5280@abc Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L
    unix>lmdiag -c 5280@abc Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_XL

    Output should be of version 6.1 similar to the following:
    -----------------------------------------------------
    License file: 5280@abc
    -----------------------------------------------------
    "Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L" v6.1, vendor: cdslmd
      License server: abc
      floating license  starts: 13-oct-2009,   expires: 11-jan-2010
      Requests from the same USER/HOST/DISPLAY do not consume a new license

    This license can be checked out
    -----------------------------------------------------


    Best regards
