rlm linux – serving several licenses

RLM 9.0 and above, supports the option to specify the ISV port

HOST computerName ANY 5055
ISV vendorName port=43956

When running ./rlm use the -c option to specify all the licenses you want to serve. Each should have its own port in the ISV vendor line.

For ie:

ISV foundry port=35099

Running ./rlm -c solidAngle.lic -c foundry.lic -c peregrine.lic -c joeAlter.lic  Notice the

...
05/14 10:17 (rlm) Starting ISV server peregrinel on port 34734
05/14 10:17 (rlm) Starting ISV server joealter on port 43956
05/14 10:17 (rlm) Starting ISV server foundry on port 35099
05/14 10:17 (rlm) Starting ISV server solidangle on port 48056
...

If the ISV port is not specified, the rlm server will assign a random port to each license. This is ok for only some vendors like SolidAngle. But The Foundry products, Peregrine Labs, and Joe Alter (as in the example) will need a specific port.
After assigning the port in the license files, you can edit your maya.env to tell the plugins the vendor port

peregrinel_LICENSE=34734@licenseServerName //yeti
RLM_LICENSE=43956@licenseServerName //shave & haircut license

When opening a The Foundry product, select the RLM server, and write the license location as 35099@licenseServerName

Your ./rlm command should yield something like this:
