Arm Compiler for Embedded License Activation in Linux

brian.w15

Hello, our company uses the Keil MDK and we're working on supporting cross-development in Linux with Arm's Linux x86 armclang package. 

I downloaded the Arm Compiler for Embedded and am trying to use `armlm` to activate the product using our FlexNet license server which we use for the Keil MDK.

My invocation for `armlm`:

armlm activate -as-user <username> -to-file <file> -server <port>@<ip> -product <product ID>

`armlm` gives the following error:

An error occurred during activation: Invalid license server address '<port>@<ip>'. Please check the address syntax.

I can ping the port of our license server from my Linux environment, I just need support with syntax. An example invocation for `armlm` using a FlexNet server would help.

    I found that I can use the env variable `ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE` to specify my FlexNet license server. Is that the recommended operation?

    The new error I receive implies our Keil MDK license is not compatible with the arm standalone compiler, is this true and if so what type of license does my company need to purchase?

    armclang: error: Failed to check out a license.
    The provided license does not enable these tools.
