ILOG CPLEX 11.0 runs under the control of the ILOG License Manager (ILM). Before you can run ILOG CPLEX, or any application that calls it, you must have established a valid license that ILM can read. Licensing instructions are provided in the ILOG License Manager User's Guide & Reference, available from your ILOG customer support website. The basic steps are:
-
Install ILM. Normally you obtain ILM distribution media from the same place that you obtain ILOG CPLEX.
-
Run the
ihostid program, which is found in the directory where you install ILM.
-
Communicate the output of step 2 to your local ILOG sales administration department. They will send you a license key in return. One way to communicate the results of step 2 to your local ILOG sales administration department is through the web page serving your region.

-
Create a file on your system to hold this license key, and set the environment variable
ILOG_LICENSE_FILE so that ILOG CPLEX will know where to find the license key. (The environment variable need not be used if you install the license key in a platform-dependent default file location.)
