MATLAB Installation Guide for PC

License Management

Overview

Note    The information in this section pertains to concurrent installations only. You do not need to read this section if you are performing a standard or group installation.

Using the MathWorks Installer, and following the instructions in Chapter 2, Concurrent License Installation Procedure you can set up a concurrent installation with little knowledge of license management. However, if you want to integrate MATLAB into an existing FLEXlm licensing scheme, you may require a more thorough understanding of license management.

This section describes

• The important licensing components, such as files and environment variables, that are used by FLEXlm
• How to perform common license management tasks, including monitoring license activity

For more detailed information about FLEXlm and license management, see the FLEXlm End User Manual, available in PDF format in the $MATLAB\flexlm directory, where $MATLAB is your installation directory.
