Overview
The Altair License Management System (ALM) gives end-users a common units-based licensing model for all Altair software related to CAE, on-demand computing, and business intelligence. Beginning with newer versions, the system has been designed to enable HyperWorks Partner Products (selected third party products) to be licensed via HyperWorks Units as well.
The Altair License Management System consists of two components: the License Server and the Usage Reporting System (URT). The license system is based on X-Formations LM-X license server. The URT is a Java application that reports anonymous transactional logs to Altair. As part of the license agreement that enables partner software to be used, product usage must be reported to Altair.
ALM is based on X-Formation’s LM-X license management system version 3.32. For additional information and details, please download the LM-X End User Guide from the Altair web site, and choose Support > Software Downloads.
