Share Your Experience: Using Cadence License Manager on Unsupported Operating Systems

Are you using Cadence License Manager on a non-standard operating system? We'd love to hear about your experiences.

 

At Cadence, we're committed to providing a seamless experience for our users. Our License Manager supports a range of popular operating systems, including:

 

* LINUX: RHEL 8.4, RHEL 9, SLES 15

* WINDOWS: Windows 11 (64-bit Professional or Enterprise), Windows 10 (64-bit Professional or Enterprise), Windows Server 2019 Standard Edition (64-bit), Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition (64-bit)

 

While we've had reports of users successfully running Cadence License Manager on other operating systems like Rocky Linux, Ubuntu, or CentOS, we've also seen some compatibility issues. For example, the vendor daemon cdslmd may fail after a checkout on CentOS 7 or Rocky 9.

 

We're always working to improve our support for various operating systems, but we need your help. Have you tried using Cadence License Manager on an unsupported OS? What were your results? Did you encounter any challenges or issues?

 

Share your stories with us in the comments below. Your feedback will help us better understand the needs of our users and prioritize our development efforts.

 

**Please note: While we're interested in hearing about your experiences, we want to remind everyone that using unsupported operating systems may lead to compatibility issues. We recommend using supported OS versions for the best possible experience.**

 

By sharing your experiences and feedback, you'll be helping us create a better experience for all Cadence users. Thank you for participating!
