    Arch Desk using Acad14 license

    221 Views, 5 Replies

    I had 22 Acad 14 licenses installed on a Novell NetWare 5 network and now
    have upgraded 1 license to Architectural desktop. I obtained new server
    codes and I am no showing 1 141 license for Arch Desk and still have 22
    licenses shown for 140 - Acad14. However, the Arch Desktop installation is
    aquiring and Acad14 license instead of the Arch Desk license. This
    somewhat defeats the purpose of the 1 arch desk network license if anyone
    that can access Acad14 can run Arch Desk.

    Any ideas why the wrong license type is being picked up?

    David,

    ADT requires two "tokens" a 140 for the base AutoCAD feature and a 141 for ADT
    specific functionality. The 141 token will not be pulled until an ADT specific
    command is used.

    When you received your authorization codes, you should have gotten two, one
    should create the 141.lic file and the other should update the 140.lic with a
    license count equal to your AutoCAD plus ADT counts. Note that AdLM Admin must
    be run for each authorization code you receive and that on Novell, you must
    stop the AdLM prior to updating the files.

    This is the procedure that I followed and ADLM Query is showing 22 140
    licenses and 1 141 license on the server, but when starting ADT, the 1 141
    license is still available and 1 140 license has been taken instead.

    David,

    ADT will ALWAYS use a 140 token. It will also use a 141 only when an ADT
    specific command is used. If in fact you own 22 AutoCADs and 1 ADT then your
    140 seat count should be 23. Stop AdLM and reenter your auth codes again and
    see what AdLM Admin says you have.

    Thanks Jerry. I had not tried to invoke any ADT commands before since I am
    not an Architect and did not realize that it would also use a 140 license.
    The ADT license was an upgrade to one of my Acad14 licenses, so I believe
    that the 22 140 licenses and 1 ADT license is still correct.

    Thanks again for your help.

    David,

    I'm glad you have a level of comfort with the situation now.
