MATLAB Installation
When you install MATLAB® software, the installer performs the following processing of the network license file:
- On the server, the installer:
- Makes a copy of the network license file named
license.dat
, and puts this copy in theetc
folder of the MATLAB installation folder. - Adds a
SERVER
line and aDAEMON
line to the file. TheSERVER
line identifies the server host and port number. TheDAEMON
line identifies the name of the network license manager daemon. - Stores the processed license file in
matlabroot/etc
, wherematlabroot
is the MATLAB installation folder. - When it creates an options file during installation, it also adds the
Options=
syntax to theDAEMON
line in your license file. This syntax specifies the path name of the options file.For example, if your server is namedthunderball
and its IP address is 144.212.111.103, theSERVER
andDAEMON
lines in your license file would look like this:
- On the client machine, the installer: Adobe table of contents links. Best software to clean pc.
- Creates a copy of the license file you specify named
network.lic
, and puts the file in thelicenses
folder in the MATLAB client installation folder. Xport 360 download free. - Deletes all the
INCREMENT
lines and theDAEMON
line in the license file, leaving theSERVER
line. It also adds the statementUSE_SERVER
to the file. This line points the client to the network license file on the server, which contains all the passcodes for the products.

Hello, Thanks for your reply. Could you anyway be more precise, please? How should I use 'MLM_LICENSE_FILE' ? Currently, 'LM_LICENSE_FILE' is defined for another application, and I cannot change it. Matlab uses network licenses, so do you mean I have to define a variable named 'MLM_LICENSE_FILE', that points to the licenses' server ? regards,

I just fixed this same problem (Windows with R2013b). Apparently MLM_LICENSE_FILE will not help, since Matlab checks the LM_LICENSE_FILE variable first. The workaround I found is a command-line switch which overrides checking the LM_LICENSE_FILE variable.
In Windows, this is conveniently done by editing the program shortcut.
'C:<path to matlab already in shortcut>matlab.exe' -c 'C:<path to your license file><licfile>.lic'
'C:<path to matlab already in shortcut>matlab.exe' -c <port#>@<licServerAddress>
Hope this helps!

The variable LM_LICENSE_FILE will apply to any software on your machine which uses FlexNet for licensing. The variable MLM_LICENSE_FILE will only apply to MathWorks products. To separate MATLAB's licensing from another program on the machine which uses FlexNet for licensing, the MLM_LICENSE_FILE variable must be used.

Is there any practical difference between using MLM_LICENSE_FILE, and using a semicolon-separated list of license files in LM_LICENSE_FILE?
If I already have other FlexNet software on my machine, I would think that manipulating the list of license files in LM_LICENSE_FILE would give me more flexibility to define the order that I 'hit' the license servers.

It is good practice and recommended to use the vendor specific environment variables to keep programs and how they interact with license servers separate. It can also be helpful later on in troubleshooting situations to use the MLM instead of LM.
