License Server Administration

The following pages contain details on license management and administration, including file locations and updating licenses.

Where are the RLM Files?

You can move the RLM files anywhere, but by default they are installed to the following directories. We refer to this directory throughout this guide and assume all the RLM components we ship are here.

Server Tools

The installer copies files to the following locations. We’ll refer to this location as the <app path>:

Mac:

/Applications/TheFoundry/LicensingTools<version>/bin/

Windows:

C:\Program Files\The Foundry\LicensingTools<version>\bin\

Linux:

/usr/local/foundry/LicensingTools<version>/bin/

Data Files

These include the license keys, server connections, and log files. We’ll refer to these locations as the <data path>.
