Network Installation

Components

To d e p l oy a n d c o n f i g u r e combustion on a network,

the following network installation components are

required. These are included on the combustion 4

installation CD.

• Autodesk License Manager (AdLM)

• FLEXlm™ Tools

• combustion License Configuration Switcher

• SAMreport-Lite (optional); for information about

SAMreport-Lite, refer to the online samlite_ug.chm

file located on the combustion 4installation CD,

in the Network Licensing\Manuals folder.

Autodesk License Manager

The Autodesk License Manager (AdLM) provides

authorization for clients running combustion on a

network. The AdLM also contains tools for network

administrators that provide query and tracking

capabilities. For authorizing combustion on a

network, double-click setup.exe in the Network

Licensing directory on the combustion 4

installation CD and follow the AdLM installer

instructions on the screen.

See “License Management” in Chapter 2, “Network

Planning Concepts’’.

FLEXlm Tools

The AdLM uses FLEXlm technology from

Macrovision® to manage network licenses. FLEXlm

provides administrative tools that help simplify

management of network licenses. You can use

FLEXlm tools to monitor network license status,

reset licenses lost to a system crash, troubleshoot

license servers, and update license files on the fly.

See “Using the FLEXlm Configuration Tools” in

Chapter 5, “Administration’’.

combustion License Configuration

Switcher

You use the combustion License Configuration

Switcher (LicenseSwitcher.exe) located in the same

directory as the combustion.exe to allow a

workstation to use either a network license or a

standalone license. For example, users running a

network license of combustion on a network

workstation can use the combustion License

Configuration Switcher to switch their license

configuration to a standalone configuration and

take work on the road. When they return, they can

switch back to a network license configuration. With

the combustion License Configuration Switcher,

users can remain productive while their computer is

detached from the network. Using the combustion

License Configuration Switcher does not convert a

network license to a standalone license. It only

changes the method combustion uses to get its

license. See “License Management” in Chapter 2,

“Network Planning Concepts’’.

See “Using the License Configuration Switcher” in

Chapter 5, “Administration’’.

SAMreport

While not part of the network installation, a version

of SAMreport called SAMreport-Lite™ is included

in the Network Licensing folder on the combustion

4installation CD to help you track network license

usage. With SAMreport-Lite technology from

Macrovision, you can monitor client usage for all

software that uses FLEXlm to manage network

licenses.

SAMreport-Lite generates usage reports in a variety

of output formats, including HTML, text, and

Report Interchange Format.

For more information about the SAMreport-Lite

features and for instructions on installing

SAMreport-Lite, see the online help file

samlite_ug.chm included on the combustion 4

installation CD in the Network Licensing\Manuals

directory.

For additional information about SAMreport-Lite,

and for updates and fixes for this feature, visit the

Autodesk website at: www.autodesk.com/

Network Planning Concepts

This chapter explains concepts related to

installing and operating combustion on a

network.

Network Configuration Models

Installing combustion on a network requires

careful planning. The type of installation you choose

to deploy can differ depending on your network

infrastructure and requirements for client use. The

network configuration model you choose to

implement determines where the components that

combustion requires for a network installation are

installed in your network environment.

Before you choose the appropriate network

configuration for your users, you must determine

how you want to deploy combustion and which

components you need to deploy on a network.

Most deployment types require two components:

• Autodesk License Manager (AdLM)

Installing, authorizing and starting the AdLM is

the first component of any network installation of

combustion. The AdLM and related files

(located on a network share) control available

licenses used by combustion. A user can run

combustion only if a license is available. The

AdLM is required for all deployment types.

• Deployment location

Creating and installing the deployment is the

second component of any network installation of

combustion. A deployment is a shared network

resource where a preconfigured combustion

setup program resides. A user installs

combustion from a deployment on the network

onto each workstation. A deployment location is

required for all deployment types. You can store

the AdLM and the deployment on the same

server or on separate servers.

The network server model you choose for your

installation determines where each component

resides on the network. The server model you

choose is based on the structure of your network, the

number of users, and your performance

requirements. It can determine how well

combustion performs in your network

environment and the length of recovery time in the

event of a network problem.

Another important aspect of a deployment to

consider is data sharing. One of the key benefits of a

deployment is that users can share data. When you

plan a deployment, consider the requirements for

sharing data and the network resources (such as

shared folders) when choosing your deployment

type and server model.

combustion supports the single server model, the

distributed server model, and the redundant server

model.

Single Server Model

With the single server model, all license

management takes place on a single server. Since all

license management takes place on a single server,

this configuration requires the least amount of

maintenance.

To create a deployment using the single server

model, you run the AdLM on the server you want to

configure and store the deployment on the same

server.
