ARMv8 Codewarrior licensing

[xabiven]

Hello,

I'm using Codewarrior for several processor platforms (PPC and ARM devices).

I use a floating license, generated for the following products :

 * 11.1          Specialist Level Features for License Files (DDR Validation, SerDes Validation, Packet Tool, Scenarios Tool)
                    Specialist Level Features for License Files (DDR Validation, SerDes Validation, Scenarios Tool)
 * 10.4          CodeWarrior for Power Architecture - Professional Edition (Eclipse-Windows hosted)
 * 10.51        CodeWarrior for Power Architecture - Professional Edition (Eclipse-Windows hosted)
 * 11.2.3       CodeWarrior for QorIQ LS Series ARMv8 ISA .
 * 11.2.0       CodeWarrior for QorIQ LS Series ARMv8 ISA .
 * 11.1          CodeWarrior for QorIQ LS Series ARMv8 ISA .

CW for PPC architectures v10.4 and 10.5.1 are working fine, like CW4NET for ARM7.

But I have licensing issue with the CW4NET for ARM8 software. Here is the NXP license status for this application:

The result of the lmstat command ran on the client machine is attached to this post.

=> Is there specific licensing instructions for this software ?

=> Should I use another software version ?

Best regards,

Hello,

I'm answering myself to my question if it can help someone else in the future.

The problem is that it is required to copy the license file which is on the LM server in the installation directory of the client.

For me, the "license.dat" file must be present here : C:\Freescale\CW4NET_v2017.03\Common

I had the same behavior for the CW_PA_10.4, whereas the CW_PA_v10.5.1 can run with only the METROWKS_LICENSE_FILE variable set.
