How can I use TRACE32 for Virtal Prototypes with Floating Licenses?
 
TRACE32 versions from July 2008 and later support floating licenses for Virtual Prototype debugging.
  • Download and install the RLM End-User Bundle to obtain your License Server binary and use it to look up your RLM Host ID:

  • Register your TRACE32 Serial Number together with your RLM Host ID
  • Download the Lauterbach Daemon for your server platform and unpack and copy it into the RLM License Server installation directory
  • When you receive your License File, copy it into the RLM License Server installation directory.
  • Configure the RLM License Server to start automatically at system boot.
  • Make a client license file (or set the corresponding RLM environment variable) to make the RLM License Server name/address and port known to the license clients
  • For Windows 32bit clients only: Download the License Client t32lm.dll and unpack and copy it into the TRACE32 installation directory of your clients


TOP       License Issue after Software Update
After installing a Software Update, POWER VIEW complains about an invalid license and switches to demo mode.
 
When purchasing a debug cable or a software maintenance contract, you get free software updates for one year.
The TRACE32 Software checks your license. If the software compile time is newer than the license expiration date, POWER VIEW switches to limited demo mode. This gives the user the opportunity to receive and test Software Updates even if the free update period is over. If he decides to use the Software Update, he must purchase or renew the software maintenance contract.
Lauterbach strongly recommends to make a backup copy of the TRACE32 installation directory before applying a software update. It is also possible to apply the update to the backup copy.
