To install floating license tokens, you have to use the Wlmadmin.exe application, available from :

For TopSolid v6 :

For TopSolid7 :

  • the folder Documents\Setup\Redist\Sentinel RMS License Manager\Tools\WLMAdmin of the installation media (see the https://faq.topsolid.com/?action=faq&cat=1&id=61&artlang=en page for downloading a version of TopSolid).
  • by launching the Help > Licenses... command, then from the Floating Licenses tab, click on the Open licenses manager button.

In the tree on the left of the WlmAdmin application, unfold the Subnet Servers node, right-click on the name of your license server, then run the Add feature > From a file > To Server and its File command and select the *.lic file sent to you by the sales department.

Repeat this operation as many times as you have .lic files.

The versions 6.27 and 7.20 require the version 10.3 of the Sentinel RMS License Manager.

Do not use the Add feature > From a file > To Server command, otherwise your licenses will be lost the next time the server is rebooted.
