Hi Paul,

Thanks for providing the items I requested. Can you perform the following checks:

  1. Make sure the NIC ID is from a physical NIC card, not virtual ID.
  2. Make sure the daemon executable paths are correctly set. From the licensing manual it should be under: "<installation-directory>\bin64\alterad.exe" which is different from your license file. Look for the daemon files in your server and set it to that.
  3. Is your license file saved in this path: "<drive>:\flexlm" If not, please save it there as it is the preferred location.
  4. Did you follow all the steps to set up floating license? Available here at section 4.3.5: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/manual/quartus_install.pdf#...
  5. Could you try restarting or performing a full reboot of your server?

Remember that each time you make changes in your license file you need to restart your server.

Regards,

Nurina
