Hi new to this blog and need some advise as Rockwell have not been helpful.....
New laptop with Win 7 Pro 64bit with both wired and wireless network connections.
Installed 2 virtual operating systems, Win XP and Win 7 in VMWare.
Both virtual operating systems have RSLogix5000 installed and FT Activation Manager.
We have more engineers who use the Rockwell software than licenses. All licenses are stored on a server. When an engineer needs one he borrows the license for a time then returns to the server when finished.
The VMWare operating system lists in its FT Activation Manager all the available licenses on the server so at least I know the virtual operating system is talking to the network and sees the server. However, when you open RSLogix5000 is has finished its grace period and wants to activate to the FT Activation Manager. You click activate and it opens the FT Activation Manager and does not activate. You can see in the list of available licenses RSLogix5000 Professional and that there is a license available.
This is happening on both virtual operating systems on this laptop. I have installed RSLogix5000 V20 and the activation manager on the host and that works OK.
I have downloaded an entire Rockwell Enterprise toolkit license to the virtual machines operating system via Activation Manager and it still gives an error.
The RSsvr.log file does have these errors:
flexsvr) UNSUPPORTED: "RS5000.exe" (PORT_AT_HOST_PLUS ) Administrator@universa-952dbe (License server system does not support this feature. (-18,327:10054 ""))
11:35:56 (flexsvr) UNSUPPORTED: "rsi.master" (PORT_AT_HOST_PLUS ) Administrator@universa-952dbe (License server system does not support this feature. (-18,327:10054 ""))
Any thoughts?
