Configure license details

Provide details of the FLM server and your Genero product's license key and number in an FGLPROFILE file.

About this task: Licensing Genero products installed on a Docker container requires the use of a Four Js License Manager (FLM) server that is hosted outside the container. For information on installing a License Manager, see the Install Four Js License Manager chapter in the Install and License your Genero Products manual.
Note:

If you transfer the license from your Genero product installed on the host machine to a Genero product running in a Docker container, the FLM is not needed. See the License sharing with docker topics in the Install and License your Genero Products manual.

In your docker directory create an FGLPROFILE file with the following configuration: 
flm.license.number="XXX#XXXXXXXX"
flm.license.key="XXXXXXXXXXXX"
flm.server=hostname
flm.service=port
Where:
  • The license number and key are those required for a Genero BDL installation.
  • The flm.server is the name or IP address of the machine that holds the license service program.
    Note: If you are working in a virtual environment such as VMware or VirtualBox, you may have to provide the IP address of the host machine depending on how your network is set up and where your FLM is located.
  • The flm.service is the port number FLM listens. The default is 6399.
What to do next:

Create a docker image with GAS and BDL installations and run in a Docker container. See Create image and run docker container.
