Altair License Fix

Altair software start up scripts conflict with our use of LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable to set the location of our FLEXlm license server. This page describes how to fix the scripts after installing HyperMesh.

For each of the scripts under $INSTALL/altair/scripts:

1. grep LM_LICENSE *

   Some of the scripts are symbolic links to one another. Use grep to find scripts, make an edit, and the search for the sublist of scripts left that need editing.

2. vi script

   Find the line that overrides the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable. Remove it.

   Find the line that exports LM_LICENSE_FILE. Remove the occurance of the string LM_LICENSE_FILE.

   Then save the file.
