Specifying the Location of the License File
The environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE
defines where the license manager looks for the License File. By default, The MathWorks appends the value $MATLAB/etc/license.dat
to this variable. If you want to change the value of this environment variable to point to some other location, you must edit the.matlab6rc.sh
script, which resides in $MATLAB/bin
.
If you edit the .matlab6rc.sh
file, you need to specify the new location in the license manager options file $MATLAB/etc/lmopts.sh
before calling lmstart
.
