License Management (MATLAB Installation Guide for PC) MATLAB Installation Guide for PC     Running MATLAB with Other FLEXlm Applications If you have another application that uses FLEXlm for license managment, you can share a single license manager, or run separate license managers either on the same or different hosts. Sharing a Single License Manager To share a license manager, combine the DAEMON and INCREMENT lines from both License Files into a single License File. Use only one of the SERVER lines and install the license manager on that host. If MATLAB and the other application are using different versions of the FLEXlm software, run the newer version of the license server. For further information, see the GLOBEtrotter Web page at www.globetrotter.com or the FLEXlm End User Manual, available in PDF form in the $MATLAB\flexlm directory. Running Separate License Managers To run separate license managers, use separate License Files. If you are running the license managers on the same host, be sure to use a different TCP port number on the SERVER line in each License File.  License File Processing on Client Systems Licensing Files and Environment Variables
