You need to find the host ID of the machine on which you want to activate your license. In the case of the floating licenses, it has to be the computer that is running the RLM.

FLOATING LICENSES

Please, note that if you are using floating licenses, it’s mandatory to install and use the RLM license server software (included in your product installer) on one of the machines in your network and activate the licenses on that machine.

  • Windows: C:\ProgramData\Next Limit\Maxwell\licenses\

  • MacOS: /Users/Shared/NextLimit/rlm_nl/Licenses

  • Linux: $HOME/Maxwell/

Tip

Then restart the machine or the RLM service.

Additionally, if you are going to use Maxwell on the computer that is running the RLM, also download this file: maxwell_license.zip

Unzip it and place it in this folder:

  • Windows: C:\ProgramData\Next Limit\Maxwell\licenses\v5 (if you cannot find the v5 folder, just create it manually)

  • MacOS: /Users/<username>/Maxwell/v5 or Home/Maxwell/v5

  • Linux: $HOME/Maxwell/v5

If you want to connect another machine to the RLM computer so it grabs the license from it, you can use the second option of the License Activator to do so.

NODE-LOCKED LICENSES

  • Windows: C:\ProgramData\Next Limit\Maxwell\licenses\v5 (if you cannot find the v5 folder, just create it manually)

  • MacOS: /Users/<username>/Maxwell/v5 or Home/Maxwell/v5

  • Linux: $HOME/Maxwell/v5
