1.6.4. Manage the License Server

These commands perform common actions in the license server:
  • Start the license server: 
    sudo systemctl start intelFPGA
  • Query the license server status: 
    sudo systemctl status intelFPGA
  • Get detail information on the license server run: 
    /opt/intelFPGA_pro/17.1/lmutil lmstat
  • Stop the license server: 
    sudo systemctl stop intelFPGA
