Creo 8 FLEXlm/FLEXnet server compatibility.

Will Creo 8 run with LM version 11.14.1.2?

We are in the process of upgrading servers, to be able to run newest Flexnet, but will Creo 8 features work with older LM?

In all documents I can found it says 11.17.1.0 is recommended, but I cant found information will it run with 11.14.1.2

    If you're going to upgrade your servers, you'd probably be better off just going with the latest FlexLM. Our IT folk flagged my Creo 4.0 era license server as a security risk. I worried about compatibility with older versions of Creo and the latest license server, but was informed that things work fine.

    Here's the discussion I had on here pertaining to FlexLM upgrades:

      Definitely will be upgrading for the newest one.
      For now I don't have such option.

      So the question is: will Creo 8 will work with LM 11.14.1.2 ?

        Thanks Vladimir,

        I read this already 🙂
        I might be wrong, but the header at the table says: FLEXlm/FLEXnet Server Version (Shipped)
        It does not indicate clearly, that this is required for each Creo version.
