Using SPFServermanager.exe with the /lmcreate argument creates a new license manager site. You must provide information about the new site using several additional arguments:
/sn: - names the new site (required)
/lst: - sets the license server type; the only valid value is SPLM, which is used in all circumstances, even when installing Intergraph Smart Licensing (ISL) (required).
/db: - sets the database type; valid values are Oracle or SQLServer, not case-sensitive (required).
/dsn: - identifies the data source or TNS name.
/u: - identifies the database user name.
/p: - identifies the database password.
/ic: - identifies the initial catalog value (required for SQL Server connection strings).
/tlp - sets the path to the trace configuration log file folder location (optional). Use to change the path to a new trace log folder location; if not set, the path defaults to server trace log folder set in the configuration file.
/lsud - identifies the domain value to set up licensing so that an application can support group level CCI configurations (optional).
The below examples create an Oracle or SQL Server site called LicSite at the specified location, and includes the database details.
Example for Oracle:
SPFServermanager.exe /lmcreate /sn:LicSite /lst:SPLM /db:oracle /dsn:SPF /u:SPFuser /p:password
Example for SQL Server:
SPFServermanager.exe /lmcreate /sn:LicSite /lst:SPLM /db:SQLServer /dsn:sqlserver /u:SPFuser /p:password /ic:icvalue
This example uses the /log: argument to generate a log file that stores results and errors from the operation.
Specify a path and file name for the target log file (an extension is not required
for the file).
SPFServermanager.exe /lmcreate /sn:LicSite /lst:SPLM /log:"C:\SmartPlant Foundation Server Files\Temp\ServerManager\LicSiteCreation"
Example to create a site and set up licensing with an optional domain value.
SPFServermanager.exe /lmcreate /sn:SPFLS /lst:SPLM /db:SQLServer /dsn:SPF /u:xyz /p:password /ic:SPFDEV /lsud:ingrnet.com
