Obtain your System ID

Install and view licenses

Install server tools and control a license server

Help troubleshoot licensing problems

There are no bug fixes in this release.

Known Issues

If you install the server tools before installing a floating license, an RLM server starts on the default RLM port (5053). When you then install a floating license, the FLU may not be able to restart the RLM server on the correct Foundry port (4101).
As a workaround, uninstall and reinstall the server tools to pick up the correct port number and start the RLM server.
