1. Add the public key for the Partek package repository*
   $ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys C82B61BF
   
   
2. Add the Partek package list to your repository*
   $ sudo wget -P /etc/apt/sources.list.d/{+} http://packages.partek.com/debian/partek-flow.list+http://packages.partek.com/debian/partek-flow.list
   *Steps 1 and 2 only need to be performed once prior to the first installation. Re-installation and updates do not require this step.
   
   
3. Update the list of available packages
   $ sudo apt-get update
   
   

4. Install Partek Flow
   $ sudo apt-get install partekflow
   When asked to continue, type the letter Y and press Enter.

5. If additional configuration is needed, use the reconfigure command below. This can be run any time after Partek Flow is installed. For details regarding each setting, contact the Partek Licensing Department. In most cases, this step can be skipped.
   $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure partekflow
   
   
6. (Optional) To manually configure Partek Flow or to set additional advanced options or environment variables, edit the following configuration file:
   /etc/partekflow.conf
   Note that all changes made by the reconfigure command in step 5 are also stored in this configuration file.
   
   
7. Start the Partek Flow server
   $ sudo service partekflowd start
   A message should indicate that Partek Flow is now running:Starting Partek Flow server: OK
   Step 7 needs to be performed only once after installation. Partek Flow will start automatically whenever the server restarts.

Prerequisites

FlexLM may require the linux Linux standard base utilities to run on Ubuntu. If you receive the message "No such file or directory", then run the following commands as root:
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install lsb-core

...

1. Open a Linux terminal as a non-root user in that user's home directory.
   
   
2. Download the Partek FlexNet 11.12 distribution. Versions of FlexNet downloaded from other locations will not work as they do not contain the Partek vendor daemon (parteklm).
   $ cd
   *_$ wget http://www.partek.com/~devel/FlexNet/FlexNet11.12.zip_*
   $ unzip FlexNet11.12.zip
   
   
3. Obtain the license key from Partek. Save it in the home directory as license.dat.
   If you have not received the license.dat file, contact your Account Manager or email licensing@partek.com.
   
   
4. Determine if your linux Linux workstation is 32 or 64-bit.
   
   
5. Start the license server.
   If you are on a 64-bit workstation (most-likely):
   $ ~/FlexNet/linux64/lmgrd -c ~/license.dat -l ~/flexlog.txt
   If you are on a 32-bit workstation:
   $ ~/FlexNet/linux32/lmgrd -c ~/license.dat -l ~/flexlog.txt
   
   
6. Verify the licensing server is running and offering features: flow_base, flow_hpc_nodes, and flow_hpc_cores:
   $ ~/FlexNet/linux64/lmutil lmstat -a (64-bit)
   $ ~/FlexNet/linux32/lmutil lmstat -a (32-bit)

...

• If you are on the computer running Partek Flow, go to {*}{_}{+}http://localhost:8080/flow+_*http://localhost:8080/flow 
  Note that if the Flow server port was assigned a different number during installation, replace 8080 with the correct port.

...

1. Locate the Flow installation directory. This is defined as the FLOWhome variable in the file /etc/partekflow.conf.
   $ grep FLOWhome /etc/partekflowd.conf
   For this example, we assume the Flow install directory is /opt/partek_flow. Replace this with the directory found in step 1.
   
   
2. Run the script
   $ bash /opt/partek_flow/flowstatus.sh
   After the script is run, a report will appear on the screen, then you will be asked if you wish to upload this report to Partek. If this report is uploaded, you will be contacted by support personnel who will assist with your issue. 
   
   If you are unable to find the flowstatus.sh script on your system or you want to run the most recent version of this script, then execute the following:
   *_$ wget https://customer.partek.com/flowstatus.sh_*
   $ bash flowstatus.sh
