Prerequisites for the Licensing Environment

Windows workstations must have a LAN Card (Ethernet or Token Ring) and TCP/IP installed and properly configured, even in the case of nodelock licensing, but there is no need to have the workstations connected to the network.
No additional software is required when accessing nodelock licenses. IBM License Use Management (LUM), is required to serve concurrent licenses across a network.
NOTE THAT LUM 5 IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THIS V5 DELIVERY. 4.6.8 level of LUM is required on all platforms for all product brands.

LUM 4.6.8 + 4.6.8.3 patch is the latest level certified by Dassault Systemes. It is recommended to migrate your LUM servers to this level.

IBM License Use Management may be obtained, at no charge, from http://www.ibm.com/software/lum

Disk Storage Requirements

An approximate size of 300 Mb on Windows and 375 Mb on UNIX is needed to install the software.
