Preparation
Have other users who are using a network license get out of the software, or check out a license to keep them working and productive.
Copy the existing “?your company or release name?.lic” license file from the folder named “lic” or “License” depending on what was created. C:\Program Files\Autodesk Network License Manager\License to a temporary folder / safe place. We’ll need the license file later to merge with other products.
The data from the new lic. File needs to be copied and pasted into the existing lic. file.
The data from the new lic file should look like the below example:
SERVER Raiserver 002233e6674b
USE_SERVER
VENDOR adskflex port=2080
INCREMENT 51900AMECH_PP_2007_0F adskflex 1.000 permanent 3 \
