Before starting the Windows Network version of Maple Connector for SysML 2024, you must obtain your license file and start the license manager by completing the following tasks.
Network licenses for Maple Connector for SysML and other Maplesoft products are registered using the Network Tools program.
Maple Connector for SysML 2024 requires a Maple Connector for SysML 2024 license file to operate. License files for earlier versions of Maple Connector for SysML do not work with Maple Connector for SysML 2024. To obtain your license file, you must use the Maple Network Tools activation program or activate off-line by following the instructions at http://www.maplesoft.com/contact/webforms/offlineactivation/. Ensure that you can connect to the Internet as activation requires an Internet connection. If your computer does not have an Internet connection, please contact Maplesoft customer service.
The C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\FLEXlm\11.13.1.2\windows directory contains license manager daemons (lmgrd and maplelmg) required to run Maple Connector for SysML, as well as utilities to assist you in installing and configuring FlexNet Publisher for your system.
If you intend to use a Novell® server, see Novell Networks.
To set up and start the license manager daemons on a Windows Network Server:
Service Name | Enter a name for the service (optional) |
Path to the lmgrd.exe file | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\FLEXlm\11.13.1.2\windows\lmgrd.exe |
Path to the license file | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\activate\SysMLConnector2024.lic |
Path to the debug log file: Enter the path to the directory containing the debug log file. You must create this file manually (log.txt is the manually created file in the example below), as it is not automatically generated. | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\FLEXlm\11.13.1.2\windows\log.txt |
You can now use Maple Connector for SysML 2024.
To run multiple Maplesoft products (including Maple Connector for SysML), you must place all license files in the same directory. If you have other FlexNet Publisher license files stored in one central location, you can store your Maplesoft product license files there as well.
Complete the following tasks:
Using Windows Explorer, move all of the license files to a common directory, for example, C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\activate.
Service Name | Enter a name for the service (optional) |
Path to the lmgrd.exe file | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\FLEXlm\11.13.1.2\windows\lmgrd.exe |
Path to the license file Note: The path to the license file should not contain a terminating backslash | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\activate |
Path to the debug log file: Enter the path to the directory containing the debug log file. You must create this file manually (log.txt is the manually created file in the example below), as it is not automatically generated. | C:\Program Files\Maple Network Tools\FLEXlm\11.13.1.2\windows\log.txt |
You can now use your network licensed Maplesoft products.
FlexNet Publisher does not run on Novell or IPX/SPX. Follow these instructions to install the license manager on any network that is exclusively a Novell environment.

Before starting the macOS® Network version of Maple Connector for SysML 2024, you must obtain your license file and start the license manager by completing the following tasks.
To begin installing the FlexNet Publisher and Activation Utilities:
Network licenses for Maple Connector for SysML and other Maplesoft products are registered using the Network Tools program.
Maple Connector for SysML 2024 requires a Maple Connector for SysML 2024 license file to operate. License files for earlier versions of Maple Connector for SysML do not work with Maple Connector for SysML 2024.

Ensure that you can connect to the Internet as activation requires an Internet connection. If your computer does not have an Internet connection, please contact Maplesoft customer service.
Before you can use Maple Connector for SysML 2024, you must start the license server. It is recommended that you do not run lmgrd as root because any process run by root is a potential security risk.
./lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log &
where license_file_path is the full path and filename of the network license file (by default, /Users/<username>/Maple Network Tools/activate/SysMLConnector2024.lic), and debug_log is the name of a file to which debugging information is written. The -l option (letter l, not the number 1 (one)) creates the file.
If you have any problems starting the license server in the system boot up files, refer to http://www.flexerasoftware.com.
You can now use Maple Connector for SysML 2024.
To run multiple Maplesoft products (including Maple Connector for SysML), you must place all license files in the same directory. If you have other FlexNet Publisher license files stored in one central location, you can store your Maplesoft product license files there as well.
Complete the following tasks:
Go to the location of the FlexNet Publisher utilities that are currently being used. For Maple Connector for SysML 2024, the default location is /Users/<username>/Maple Network Tools/FLEXlm/11.13.1.2/. Enter the command:
./lmdown
Copy all the network license files to /Users/<username>/Maple Network Tools/activate.
Note: Point to the directory only, not an actual license file.
./lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log
where license_file_path is the full path to the directory containing the license files and debug_log is the name of a file to which debugging information is written. The -l option (letter l, not the number 1 (one)) creates the file.
You can now use your network licensed Maplesoft products.

Using the C Shell
To start the license manager daemon (lmgrd), enter the following command at the prompt,
./lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log & |
where license_file_path is the full path and filename of the network license file (by default, $HOME/MapleNetworkTools/activate/SysMLConnector2024.lic) and debug_log is the name of a file to which debugging information is written. The -l option (letter l, not the number 1 (one)) creates the file.
Using the Korn or Bourne Shell
To start the license manager daemon (lmgrd), enter the following command at the prompt:
nohup lmgrd -c license_file_path -l debug_log 2>&1 & |
Run Daemons on Startup
To have the daemons run on startup, edit the appropriate boot script (such as /etc/rc.boot, /etc/rc.local, or /etc/rc2.d/Sxxxx). For example, if you run lmgrd as a boot startup script, you can run it as a regular user by using the following su command at the prompt:
su username -c \'umask 022; lmgrd_path -c license_file_path -l log_path\' |
where username is a non-privileged user; lmgrd_path is the correct path to the lmgrd file, license_file_path is the full path of the network license file (by default, $HOME/MapleNetworkTools/activate/SysMLConnector2024.lic), and log_path is the debug log file path. It is recommended that the network license file be called SysMLConnector2024.lic.

Named Network Users run Maple Connector for SysML on their own client machines. These client machines are connected to the license server over the network. The Network Named User licensing option allows system administrators to strictly enforce which users, or client machines, may run Maple Connector for SysML.
When you install Maple Network Tools, an options file (.opt) is automatically created in the $Maple Network Tools/activate directory.
Note: By default, the vendor daemon looks for the options file (maplelmg.opt) in the same directory that contains the license file used by the license server manager.
To set up Named Network User licensing, perform the following steps:
To manually edit the options file, perform the following steps:
INCLUDE Maple USER User1
INCLUDE Maple USER User2
INCLUDE Maple USER User3
INCLUDE Maple USER User4
INCLUDE MapleExcel USER User4
INCLUDE SysMLConnector USER User4
