Is it possible to work with options files on MKS.exe?

[ptc-5067440]

Dear all,

we like to reserve one or more licenses for a specific subnet or a couple of computers. 

We tried to add an option file to the mks daemon but it seems not to be parsed.

Our license looks like this now:

# Do not change the following three lines
#_PTC_CUSTOMER_NUMBER: xxx
#_PTC_INSTALL_SITE_NUMBER: xxx
#_PTC_CONTRACT_NUMBERS: xxx
SERVER xxx xxx
VENDOR MKS
DEAMON MKS "C:\Program Files\FlexNet Publisher License Server Manager" "C:\Program Files\FlexNet Publisher License Server Manager\licenses\MKS\user_options.txt"

and in the user_options.txt file we put:

RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityManager-Float INTERNET 192.168.20.*
RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityServer INTERNET 192.168.20.*
RESERVE 1 MKSIntegrityServer-DBBackend INTERNET 192.168.20.*
RESERVE 1 MKSSourceIntegrity-Float INTERNET 192.168.20.*

But it's not working. Does the MKS daemon support FlexLM option files in general?

Thanks in advance and kind Regards,

Ulf.

Ok, you can close this issue. We fixed it.

We just changed the license file to:

SERVER xxx xxx
VENDOR MKS
DEAMON C:\user_options.txt

and thereafter the options file has been parsed and activated.
