Where is the server address and port stored that is configured in NI License Manager?

[csjjpm]

Hi,

  I am trying to configure a silent installation of LabView.  I have tried the specfile and put in the license code etc..  I cannot see a place there to configure a license server address.

I've run NI License Manager on a reference PC and have configured one there but how can I deploy that config to a number of PCs?  How is it stored and where is it stored?

thanks

Paul

I think I am answering my own question.

I managed to find the content 'Automating Activation' in the NI License Manager help file.

After completing the install I need to sequence the command

nilmutil.exe -addservers server:12345

Is this correct?

thanks

Last question (I promise)

If I dont have a volume license how do I determine what my 'package' or 'family' is?

Package
Syntax: nilmUtil.exe -activate "packagename version"
Example: nilmUtil.exe -activate "LabVIEW_PDSM_PKG 8.0500" 

Family
Syntax: nilmUtil.exe -family "family"
Example: nilmUtil.exe -family "LabVIEW_ADE_080600"

Hi csjjpm,

The package and family only apply when used with license files. You can work out the package and family by opening a .lic file with something such as Notepad++ and looking for the PACKAGE and FAMILy keyword within there.
