two network licenses in a same server, how to select client to catch one or another license ?

hello,

we have two network licenses in a server with Flexnet. How can we select clients for one or another license?

If the license file (network.lic) in client is whith "USE_SERVER" the server offers the license that he want, but if in the license file in client is with "INCREMENT..... LICENSE=XXXXX......" the license is the correct.

But, we dont want to put the "INCREMENT...." for security reasons.

it is posible to do otherwise ?

hello, finally i found the solution.

the mistake is in the mlm.opt file

in all of your questions/answers, the selection of license is MATLAB:asset_info=xxxx . but, in our flexnet (ver.11.11) the selection of license must be MATLAB:key=xxxxxx

this is the functionaly mlm.opt file:

GROUP MATLAB_users tu yo el

GROUP MATLAB_CLASS_users pepe juan alberto

EXCLUDE MATLAB:key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GROUP MATLAB_users

EXCLUDE SIMULINK:key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GROUP MATLAB_users

INCLUDE MATLAB:key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GROUP MATLAB_CLASS_users

INCLUDE SIMULINK:key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx GROUP MATLAB_CLASS_users

INCLUDE MATLAB:key=yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy GROUP MATLAB_users

INCLUDE SIMULINK:key=yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy GROUP MATLAB_users

thanks.

Hi Carmen.

Your question is a bit unclear. ("offers the license we want" vs. "the license is correct")

Nevertheless:

1. What Matlab release are you using ?

2. I can offer you an insight on floating licenses: the order of appearance in the license file determines the order upon which licenses will be checked out.

hello, sorry, i will explain our situation well:

we have x academic concurrent licenses and xx classroom concurrent licenses, we have concatenated the licenses.

we follow the instructions on: https://es.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/101449-how-do-i-combine-a-classroom-concurrent-license-and-an-academic-concurrent-license-for-matlab-on-the?s_cid=srchtitle and.. https://es.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/91983-how-do-i-configure-an-options-file-with-multiple-licenses?s_cid=srchtitle

we have a mlm.opt file.

but the clients dont follow the rules, they catch the other license.

when we start the service licenses, the log looks like this:
