HOW CAN I RUN BOTH v2.x AND v3.0 INSTALLATIONS USING THE SAME LICENSE FILE?

OpenSpirit v3.0 is a major release that requires a new license file built with FLEXlm 10.8. A patch for the v2.9.x installations to incorporate with v3.0 license daemons and check-out v3.0 license features is needed. Using this patch you can run both a v2.9.x and a v3.0 installation simultaneously with only one license file.

In general to run OpenSpirit v2.9.x and v3.0 together you need to do the following:

  1. Shutdown the v2.9.x OpenSpirit license daemon
  2. Install v3.0
  3. Start the v3.0 license daemon, either locally when v3.0 starts or from a separate license server.
  4. Patch all v2.9.x installations (Master & Satellite) with the v2.9.x License Server patch. The patch is installed in the $OSP_HOME/classes directory.
  5. Shutdown and restart the v2.9.x Shared Services

A more detailed procedure can be downloaded here.

The v2.9.x License Server patch is available here:
