LMtools not detecting Virtual adaptor MAC address

chadga

Hi,

I got my license generated on my Virtual Adaptor MAC Address. Now the LMtools is not detecting this MAC ID,it doesn't show up in Ethernet address under system systems of LMtools and i'm getting licensing error. Why is that so. What is the solution to this problem.

Please help me on this issue.

Regards,

Chadga.

    There won't be any resolution if the license manager cannot find the MAC address, it is required and FlexLM licensing won't go any further without it. You could try the debug.log file for the license manager and see if it lists any "valid hosts" after "server line says". Typically, but not in every case, Virtual Machine licensing is locked to a machine fingerprint that the license manager tools provide and Cadence generate the license against under a specific license agreement, rather than "simply" the MAC address of a VM.
