Why does the altera daemon does not launch when using different versions of lmgrd daemons between ModelSim* - FPGA Edition Software and other Mentor Graphics* products? - Why does the altera daemon does not launch when using different versions of lmgrd daemons between ModelSim* - FPGA Edition Software and other Mentor Graphics* products? Description Due to a conflict between different version of daemons between ModelSim*- FPGA edition software and other Mentor Graphics* products, the alterad vendor daemon executable will not launch with the next message: 13:39:34 (lmgrd) alterad exited with status 58 () 13:39:34 (lmgrd) Since this is an unknown status, license server 13:39:34 (lmgrd) manager (lmgrd) will attempt to re-start the vendor daemon. 13:39:34 (lmgrd) EXITING DUE TO SIGNAL 1 Resolution To fix this problem, please be sure to be compliant with the next guidelines: You can only have one vendor daemon running at a time on a single system, for example, alterad and mgcld can co-exist, but you cannot have two running daemons of alterad. If you have an FPGA software license and Altera-issued ModelSim* license, and also have other Mentor Graphics* ModelSim* software license. You can either merge all of them into a single file, or put all Mentor Graphics* ModelSim* software licenses in a single file. If you do the later, you need to remove the VENDOR mgcld line from the license file. You cannot have Mentor Graphics* licenses across two files for the same license server. If a soft reload through the lmutil lmreread command fails, shut down the current license daemons before reloading them again. Always use the latest lmgrd and lmtools or follow the next criteria when combining different FLEXnet* licensing version files: Version of lmutil/LMTOOLS must be greater than or equal to the version of lmgrd. Version of lmgrd must be greater than or equal to the version of the vendor daemon. Version of the vendor daemon must be greater than or equal to the version of the client library linked to the FLEXenabled application. Version of the client library linked to the FLEXenabled application must be greater than or equal to the version of the license file format.
