Generating license file for Siemens FlexLM server Linux

[Chain-ICT]

Hello, This is the first time i'm setting up a license server. I have an SW-ONE-QUARTUS license. in my understanding to get Quasta-intel working you will need the Siemens FLexLM license server. i got the License server running on Rocky Linux 9 but it will not accept the license file.  i create an floating lincense file for my server with the correct MAC addres but siemens server gives this error: "2024-12-18 11:31:42.975 The specified license file is a node-locked license file. Please select a server license file. For file: /home/ict/licenses/LR-208989_License.dat"

These are the license file settings:

SERVER RockyChain D067E5FA9809 29000
VENDOR alterad
VENDOR saltd
USE_SERVER

What am i doing wrong here?

Hello,

You need to generate a floating license in order to use in Linux environment. Node license is tied to the

network interface card (NIC) ID of the computer on which you installed the software.

Kindly go through the UG below on How to setup the license.
