A permanent LSF license is tied to the host ID of a particular license server host and cannot be used on another host.
If you are already running FlexNet to support other software licenses, you can use the existing license server host to manage LSF also. In this case, you will add your Platform LSF license key to the existing FlexNet license file.
If you are not already using FlexNet, or prefer to administer LSF license management separately, you must choose a host to run the license daemons.
It is possible to run multiple license server hosts for failover purposes.
