To install the License Manager, do the following:

1. Log in as a user with administrative privileges.
2. Close all applications on your computer.
3. Next, to install the ArcGIS License Manager, see ArcGIS License Manager installation and startup.

On UNIX and Linux, the default installation location is $HOME/arcgis/licensemanager.

Concurrent Use license

To use CityEngine 2022.0 with the "Concurrent Use" license type, you must have ArcGIS License Manager 2022.0 installed and authorized with a CityEngine 2019-2022 "Concurrent Use" license.

You can upgrade an older ArcGIS License Manager in-place, that was previously authorized with CityEngine 2021 "Concurrent Use" licenses, to ArcGIS License Manager 2022.0. The old ArcGIS License Manager immediately supports CityEngine 2022.0.

Note:

In some cases on slow networks, CityEngine Concurrent Use products may experience problems when trying to obtain a license from the License Manager. Please refer to the following Esri Support Technical Article https://support.esri.com/technical-article/000013086 for more information.

Once you have completed the License Manager installation, you can supply the License Manager information to those users installing CityEngine. They can browse to this network License Manager when prompted for the License Manager machine after their CityEngine installation.

For more information about using or troubleshooting the License Manager, see the License Manager Reference Guide, lmrefguide.htm, available in the Documentation folder of the CityEngine media kit. After installing the License Manager, this guide is also available from Start > Programs > ArcGIS > License Manager > License Manager Reference Guide or in the installation folder at C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\LicenseManager\Documentation\lmrefguide.htm. On UNIX and Linux machines, the License Manager Reference Guide can be accessed from $HOME/arcgis/licensemanager/documentation/lmrefguide.htm. Also, for information on new installations, or installations over versions earlier than ArcGIS License Manager 2022.0, see ArcGIS License Manager installation and startup.

Note:

The ArcGIS License Manager setup package is designed to detect and upgrade an existing installation of the ArcGIS 10.1 (including SP1) License Manager or later releases on the target system.
