1.6.2.1. Specifying the License File with the LM_LICENSE_FILE or ALTERAD_LICENSE_FILE Environment Variable
You can specify the Intel® Quartus® Prime software license location with the LM_LICENSE_FILE or ALTERAD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable.
To specify the license file:
- Close the software if it is open.
- Set the LM_LICENSE_FILE or ALTERAD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable using the Control Panel (Windows) or by editing your .cshrc or .bashrc file (Linux).
Note: Linux: You must source your .cshrc or .bashrc file before restarting the Intel® Quartus® Prime software. See the topic on setting up the Linux environment for more details.
- Start the Intel® Quartus® Prime software.
Note: The license file setting in the License Setup dialog box supersedes the LM_LICENSE_FILE or ALTERAD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable setting.
