Mac OS X 10.10 and aboveĪpple is in the process of depreciating environment variables, so see this article for a workaround if you are on OS X 10.10 "Yosemite" or higher: A simple example for MPG License server:Įxport MLM_LICENSE_FILE=$HOME/ # csh: setenv MLM_LICENSE_FILE $HOME/Īnd correspondingly for other license server.

You can either type the command in a shell session (which will make it only last for the session) or you can add it to the appropriate file in your home directory (or create that file if it doesn't exist). This can be done in the shell using the setenv or export command depending on the shell. You have to go through the procedure for every Windows host you are working on.Storing it on a network-drive allows however to use the same file on several hosts. Name and location of the license file are arbitrary.You have to create the file H:\mymatlab.dat containing the two lines for your specific license server: see above!.Select new and set Variable Name: MLM_LICENSE_FILE Variable Value: H:\mymatlab.dat.Next click the Environment Variables button near the bottom.You can also set a system variable, if several users are using the machine all entitled to use. Open the Control Panel in the Windows menu.How you find or set these environment variables depends on your Operating System: Windows LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable can also be set to do this, but any FLEXlm application will then use it, so don't use it! MLM_LICENSE_FILE is specific to the MATLAB vendor daemon, MLM, and will not be recognized by other FLEXlm applications. If that's not an option please refer to Mathworks instructions or read on:īeginning with MATLAB 6.0 (R12), MLM_LICENSE_FILE can be set to make sure MATLAB is using a specific license file (or server(s) for network licenses).

IF the license number is not corresponding to the license server you need to use, please change the license file according to the instructions below. The set of toolboxes listed will always be identical. In Matlab issue the 'ver' command (see below). Please note: the MPSD license server is only available from the MPSD subnet. In case of problems or questions please use the contacts specified below. The University Hamburg and Max-Planck Groups at DESY have independent Matlab license server! If (and only if) you are a member of the University Hamburg or the MPG please use the coresponding license information.
