Installing the software on a network drive is no different than installing it on a local hard drive-specify the target installation drive and folder, and the software is installed accordingly. Some
networks protect installation folders from subsequent modification. As such, CADWorx requires
setting the access rights to the installation folder to write, read and modify in specific folders.
Because CADWorx uses data files specific to the installation that you may need to modify, these
files cannot be located in the protected installation folder. Instead, these data files are located in
a sub-folded named [Product Folder]\Plant\System and [Product Folder]\Plant\Support. Give
users all access rights to both folders.
Although the actual name of the software installation folder can be user-specified, the
\System and \Support folder names are fixed and created automatically during the installation
process. Renaming either of these sub-folders causes the software to generate errors and fail.
Renaming the sub-folders causes the software to generate errors and fail.
If users are allowed to modify the specifications and/or component data files, these default
folders must also allow full access. Specification files are found in the [Product Folder]\Spec
folder. Data files are contained in the .prj file but are found in \Steel_I, and \Steel_M folders for
steel. After the software is installed, you can use the configuration facilities within the Pipe and
Steel Setup functions to move these folders to a user-specified location. For more information,
see Setup in the CADWorx Plant User's Guide.
When the software is installed on a network drive, each client computer must contain the
command line directives in the icon to properly locate and run the software. The easiest way to
create the icon is to run the CADWorx Plant Setup Profile on the client computer.
CADWorx can be run on a network or on stand-alone computers. Three different network
installation configurations are possible.
1. Software is installed on a network drive. A green local hardware lock is attached to all client
computers.
2. Software is installed on a network drive or on individual client computers. A red lock is
attached on a network system, and subsequently accessed by multiple users.
3. Software is installed on a network drive. Local hardware locks and a network hardware locks
are used.

Licensing
CADWorx supports three types of licensing:

Local External Software Lock (ESL) - Hardware-based licensing using a green USB
dongle. A local ESL can be moved between computers (such as between desktops and
laptops).

Network External Software Lock (ESL) - Hardware-based licensing using a red USB
dongle. A network ESL is installed on a computer that is network accessible from the
computer, or multiple computers, running CADWorx.

License Manager - Software-based licensing using SmartPlant License Manager (SPLM).

For more information, see SmartPlant License Manager Installation (on page 27). Refer to
the SmartPlant License Manager documentation for complete installation and configuration
instructions.

External Software Lock (ESL) Keys

The External Software Lock (ESL) is the security protection method used by Intergraph CAS,
Inc. The software cannot execute unless an appropriate ESL (green or red USB key) is
connected locally to the computer, or to another computer in the network (red USB key).
The ESL contains the CADWorx licensing data, and other client-specific information. This
information includes the client company name and user ID number. Additional data may be
stored on the ESL depending on the specific program and the specific client.
There are two different ESL types, local and network. Both types of ESLs are intended to be
attached to the USB ports of the applicable computers. The appropriate ESL(s) are shipped with
your product according to the licensing type purchase.

Local ESLs provide the maximum flexibility in using the software in that they can be moved
between computers (for example, between desktops and laptops).

Network ESLs must be attached to a computer on the network, either a computer or the
server. In order for the network to respond to software requests for the ESL, the NetHASP
License Manager utility must also be running on the computer where the network ESL is
attached.

The HASP drivers for ESL usage can be found in the sub-directory ASSIDRV beneath the
CADWorx program directory. The documentation files in this sub-directory contain instructions
for a variety of networks and operating systems. Note that there are periodic updates to these
ESL drivers and they can be downloaded from the Intergraph Smart Support
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com) website.
Do not connect two locks to the same computer. The software finds the first lock and
returns its code. For example, you have a lock for CAESAR II and CADWorx and plug both into
the same computer. You start CAESAR II, but the software might find the CADWorx lock first
and return an error. If the same computer is going to run more than one Intergraph CAS, Inc.
product, then contact Intergraph CAS by sending an email to
[email protected] to request that both products be licensed from the same
lock.

ESL Installation
The following topics explain how to install the different hardware locks supported by CADWorx.

What do you want to do?

Install a local lock (on page 24)

Install a network lock (on page 24)

Install a local lock

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. If you are installing CAESAR II, PV Elite, or TANK, navigate to c:\Program Files\Intergraph
CAS\Product\Assidrv and double-click HASPUserSetup.exe.
-ORIf you are installing CADWorx, navigate to c:\CADWorx Version\Product\Assidrv and doubleclick HaspHLDriverSetup.exe
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.

Install a network lock

The following list details general information about red network ESLs.

The red network ESL should be set up by a Network Administrator or someone familiar with
Windows-based networks. If you are not familiar with concepts such as network protocols,
broadcast, IP addresses, TCP, UDP, and Windows Services, please do not attempt to setup
the red network ESL.

The red network ESL does not have to be attached to the network server. We recommend
attaching the red network ESL to a computer that is always up and running, can be rebooted without impact to users, and is not the primary computer for any user on the network.

If you install an Intergraph CAS product on a network drive for multiple users to access,
assign read/write privileges for all users to the [Product Folder]\System folder. Intergraph
CAS applications write temporary files to the [Product Folder]\System folder that pertains to
the installation. The [Product Folder]\System folder also needs to have read/write privileges
for all users.

If you are using other network protocols, such as NetBIOS or IPX, check the SafeNet web
site for instructions. The only protocol tested with Intergraph CAS products is TCP/IP.

The information provided in CADWorx Help file is a supplement to the NetHasp User's
Guide, which is delivered as a PDF(_NETHASP.pdf) in Assidrv folder. Review the PDF file
for any issues not addressed in the Help file.

Notes on Network ESLs

A network ESL has advantages and disadvantages. One big advantage is that many client
computers can access the software from a single server. Additional points for consideration are
listed below.

Depending on the number of licenses allowed by the network ESL, some users may receive
error messages when attempting to access the software. For example, if the ESL has been
configured to allow four simultaneous users, an error message stating that no licenses are
available when the fifth user attempts to access the software. Consequently, the fifth user is
not able to access the software until one of the first four users exits the software and
releases a license.

Because of the communication procedures between the client computer and the file server,
memory access to the network ESL is much slower than to a local ESL. This access time
delay only occurs when the software is first started after installation.

Because there is no network specific version of the software, the software looks first for a
local ESL, and then for a network ESL. This allows both a network ESL and several local
ESLs to be used on the same system. This transparent ESL access procedure allows a
single version of the software to be used on the network and on remote computers.

We recommend that only 70 to 80 percent of the required licenses be assigned to a network

ESL, with the remaining 20 to 30 percent assigned to local ESLs. This enables the local ESL
to be moved between computers. If all of the licenses are on the network ESL, a user must
be logged into the network to access the software. As such, a few local ESLs provide much
greater operating flexibility.

NetHASP License Manager / NETHASP.INI Instructions

You must have Administrator privileges to perform the following procedure.
1. Attach the red network hardware lock to the parallel port or USB port of the computer.
2. On the computer where the hardware lock is attached, navigate to the [Product
Folder]\Assidrv folder and double click Lmsetup.exe. Follow the on-screen instructions to
install the NetHASP License Manager as a service.
3. The NetHasp License Manager starts automatically each time you re-boot the computer.
This occurs because the NetHasp License Manager is set up as a start up service inside
Windows XP/Vista/7. To verify that the service is running, click Start > Control Manager >
Administrative Services, and then double-click Services. In the Services dialog box,
locate HASP Loader in the Name list. The HASP Loader Service starts even if no one logs
into the computer.
4. Determine what protocols the NetHasp License Manager is listening to. The NetHasp
License Manager displays a message similar to those list below:
Server is listening to IPX : Loaded
Server is listening to TCP/IP : Loaded
Server is listening to NetBIOS : Loaded
Loaded means that this protocol is active on the computer.
5. Open the Activity Log menu. This displays the activity log that confirms which protocols are
loaded. Do not be alarmed if the activity log reports that the NHSRV.ini file is not found.

CADWorx Installation Guide

25

Licensing
6. Use the box in the top-left corner of the activity log to display only the information specific to
each protocol. Open the activity log for the protocol you want to use, and verify that it
contains no error messages.
7. For TCP/IP protocol, the activity log should report something similar to the following:
Server IP address: 111.111.111.111
Server Host Name: PDC_NT01
8. To speed up response time to the network key, use the Remove menu to unload any
protocols that you are not planning to use with the NetHasp License Manager.

Modify NetHASP.ini for TCP/IP Protocol

If you still cannot access the network ESL you need to configure this NetHASP.ini
file. You must know the IP address of the computer where the red network hardware lock is
attached. All lines with a semi-colon at the start are considered not used.
1. Modify the NetHASP.ini file, located at in the [Product Folder]\Assidrv folder under
[NH_COMMON], as follows:
a. NH_TCPIP = Enabled
AND under [NH_TCPIP]
b. NH_SERVER_ADDR = 111.111.111.111
c. NH_USE_BROADCAST = Disabled
You may also have to modify other entries in the [NH_TCPIP] section depending on
your network setup. The most common entry to modify is NH_TCPIP_METHOD.
2. Copy the NetHASP.ini file to the AutoCAD folder.
Example: C:\Program Files\AutoCAD
Example: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD
3. For CADWorx Design, copy the NetHASP.ini file to the [Product Folder]\Intergraph
CAS\CADWorx Design folder.
4. Start CADWorx .

Troubleshooting Network Locks

1. Verify that the NetHasp License Manager is running on the computer where the red network
ESL is attached.
2. Verify the protocols that NetHasp License Manager is broadcasting. Make sure that these
protocols are installed on the client computers.
3. Install and run the Monitor Utility. This file, NetHASPMonitorSetup.exe, is located in the
[Product Folder]Assidrv folder. If NetHASP Monitor cannot find the red network ESL, then
CADWorx cannot find the red network ESL.

SmartPlant License Manager Installation

Before beginning the product installation, refer to the delivered SmartPlant License Manager
readme file for the latest product installation updates. The readme file is delivered in the top
level product folder of the product media. Be sure you have the latest version of the SmartPlant
License Manager software before beginning the installation. If you do not have the latest version
of the software, you can install it using http://ppmapps.intergraph.com/elicense
(http://ppmapps.intergraph.com/elicense).
SmartPlant License Manager 2010 (v11) can be upgraded to SmartPlant License
Manager 2012 (v12). Any existing license key will be invalidated after the upgrade to SmartPlant
License Manager 2012 (v12). You will also need to generate a new computer ID and request a
new key. If you upgrade the SmartPlant License Manager 2010 (v11) license computer to a
SmartPlant License Manager 2012 (v12) client by mistake, you will have to un-install the
SmartPlant License Manager client and reinstall SmartPlant License Manager 2012 (v12)
license computer.

Hardware Configurations
The SmartPlant License Manager licensing computer software should be installed on a stable,
single node, hardware configuration (such as a simple PC), with a static IP address, because
license key installation and license seat usage authentication depends on the information
gathered from the physical hardware. Any automated changes that cause the hardware
information not to match with the information used to generate the license key will result in a
failure of the authentication process.
Virtual (including VMware), shadowed, mirrored, dynamic, or distributed hardware
configurations cannot be used as a SmartPlant License Manager licensing computer. This
includes terminal (application) servers, networked and distributed storage management
systems, and so forth. When these specialized systems occur in the user's network, the
SmartPlant License Manager Server licensing computer should be installed on a separate
dedicated hardware configuration system. The SmartPlant License Manager licensing computer
should be situated on the user's network where it can be accessed by all systems that are
running application software that relies on the SmartPlant License Manager licensing computer
for license management.
Multiple SmartPlant License Manager licensing computers can be used in the user's network as
long as each system is a unique hardware system/installation. If SmartPlant License Manager
licensing computers are cloned after the license key has been installed, then the license
management will fail on the cloned system. Each SmartPlant License Manager licensing
computer requires its own unique license key.

RAID (redundant array of independent disks) and SAN (storage area networks) are not
supported on a SmartPlant License Manager license computer.

The license computer must have the same version (or later) of SmartPlant License Manager
installed as any client computers. In other words, you cannot use a newer version on a client
computer to retrieve a license from an older version of SmartPlant License Manager on the
licensing computer. The license computer must have the same version (or a newer version)
installed than the clients.
You must log in as Administrator to install this software.

Download Software Updates > Products > SPLM.
Will providing the Machine ID make my computer less secure?
No. The Machine ID allows the license manager to uniquely identify your computer from a
collection of hardware and software identifiers without explicitly publishing your computer's
TCPIP address. Because the computer identifier cannot be used like a TCPIP address, it is
actually more secure than publishing your computer's TCPIP address.
Where can I find SmartPlant License Manager and other products to download?
SmartPlant License Manager is available from the following web page:
Intergraph Smart Support Online (https://smartsupport.intergraph.com)
Select Services > Download Software Updates > Products > SPLM.
You do not need a serial number to install SmartPlant License Manager.
Can I divide the licenses for one LAN into several license computers for the purpose of
managing project access, for example, or as coverage in the event that my license
computer goes down?
Yes, you can divide the licenses.
What happens if I install the new license key prior to expiration of the old license key?
The new license will overwrite the existing key independent of the expiration date.
Is my existing key still running if I regenerate the Machine ID?
Yes, but you will not be able to reinstall the old key. You will need to request a new key for
the new machine identifier.

General Topics FAQ

What is a license machine?
The license machine is the computer where the license key is loaded; it can be a standard
computer or a server. The license key tells the license machine how many licenses it can
issue. Clients of a license machine are computers where SmartPlant License Manager is
installed and pointing to the license machine. The computer where you start the software
(for example, PDS or SmartPlant P&ID) asks the license machine for a license. If a license
is available, the license machine provides it. If all licenses are in use, the client is not
granted a license.
How can I tell what version of SPLM was used in the Machine ID or license key file?
Please check the starting number in your Machine ID or license key. See the table below.
Version

Machine ID starts with

License key starts with

2012 (v12)

2010 (v11)

2008 (v10)

Do I have to have one license computer for each LAN?

No, your configuration is entirely up to you. A persistent network connection is required if
you want to connect to a license server that belongs to a different LAN.
Can I make an educated guess at my installation date?
Yes. Intergraph provides a key within 48 hours of receipt of your request (via mail or phone).
Please ensure that the date you request is the actual date that you install the key, making
sure that all necessary software is available and loaded before that date. We request that
you notify us as early as possible.
What happens if my license machine goes down?
You are unable to check out licenses from this machine until it is back in use. Processes
that already have licenses checked out are not affected by the fact that the license computer
is unavailable.
It is possible in critical situations to request emergency licenses from Intergraph. They are
installed on the client computer rather than a licensing machine. Contact Intergraph Support
at 1-800-766-7701 or your local Intergraph office for more information.
What happens if the license machine is rebooted in the middle of my design session?
Nothing. Licensing does not depend on maintaining a continuous communication link to the
license computer.
What happens if my local computer goes down after I've obtained a license?
If the scavenger cannot contact the client computer during scavenging, the license is
marked for a 16-hour hold before it is released. The scavenger periodically advances this
16-hour timer for each license. It is important to schedule the scavenger to run regularly, at
least every hour or two. If the client is in contact sooner, the hold is voided and normal
scavenging takes over.

CADWorx Installation Guide

31

Licensing
I am running out of licenses earlier than I believe I should be. How can I troubleshoot to
understand what is happening?
Have your users click Scavenge for Keys on the Scavenge Options dialog box or you can
type pdlice -n in a Command Prompt window.
If you think that client nodes are improperly holding onto licenses, examine the results of the
pdlice -M command. This shows you which client nodes have licenses checked out. If a
client computer has no plant design-related activity and it is still holding licenses, rebooting
that client and then scavenging from the license computer may free some licenses.
If possible, find out what was processing when the job stopped. This information can help
you and/or Intergraph determine the underlying cause of the termination. Save the output of
any scavenging process that returns a license. This information provides the reasons why
the license was returned. The output of the scavenger includes the following information:
nodename, product tag, batch mode (Yes/No), process ID, and checkout time.
What do I type to see the number of licenses?
Click Show Key Status from the Display Options dialog box to show the status of your
keys.
How can I tell who is using a license?
Click Display Status of Reserved License on the Display Options dialog box or in the
license log file.
We installed a key for three licenses, but we can operate only two licenses at the same
time. Why?
There can be several reasons.
Click Display Status of Reserved License on the Display Options dialog box to
determine the number of licenses that your key contains.
Click Scavenge for Keys on the Scavenge Options dialog box to scavenge for the third
license that you are unable to use.
Verify that clients and servers can telnet to each other. Look for anomalies such as two
nodes on the network with the same name or the reuse of an old name for a new computer,
but with some traces of the old computer still existing in files on the network.
When an application is on a computer that is disconnected from the network without
exiting the product, how long is the license held?
16 hours.
How long would a daily license last?
Daily license expires after 12 hours.

Floating Licenses
Setup
If you have purchased a floating license, please follow these additional steps:
1. Create a folder on a server to hold the license files (Example: \\CADWorx_LicDir).
2. Make sure all users have write privileges to this folder.
3. Extract the contents of the file <Install-Dir>\System\Network.exe to this folder.
4. One of the files extracted from the Network.exe is Network.htm. Follow the instructions in
Network.htm file to setup floating licenses.

Each activation of CADWorx from a computer uses a license. If CADWorx is started twice
on the same computer, two floating licensees are used.
To clear all license entries from the License Manager, exit out of the License Manager and
all session of CADWorx Steel and delete the CADWorxS.tb2 file. This file is located in the
"License Path" folder that is displayed in the License Manager dialog. For CADWorx
Datasheets, delete the file CADWorxD.tb2.
AutoCAD background plotting uses the last AutoCAD profile used to start a "silent" session
of AutoCAD. This session uses the CADWorx_Steel profile if PUBLISH command is done
from CADWorx Steel. This silent session of AutoCAD uses a floating license.

View
If you purchased network licenses of CADWorx, you can view details regarding these floating
licenses through the License Manager.

After the license manager starts, click on View Floating Licenses.

The View Floating Licenses dialog box appears, as shown below.

Installing and Configuring Microsoft SQL Server 2012

Because system configurations, database software, and individual company standards vary, use
this section as a checklist instead of step-by-step instructions for Microsoft SQL Server 2012
SP2 (64-bit) running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system. Please contact Intergraph
Customer Support for specific configuration questions.
If you are using a Global Workshare Configuration, you need to install the Enterprise Edition of
Microsoft SQL Server for your Host and Satellite locations.
There are internationalization considerations concerning the SQL Server collation
settings you specify that relate to reference data, using SmartPlant Enterprise integrated
systems, Global Workshare Configuration, multiple locales, backup/restore, reports, and
upgrading to future releases. Please contact Intergraph Customer Support for specific
configuration questions.

In MSDTC, the session timeout is implemented by the registry setting
ORAMTS_SESS_TXNTIMETOLIVE. The general rule for setting timeouts are:
MSDTC timeout (default 60) (IIS Setting) < ORAMTS_SESS_TXNTIMETOLIVE
(set to 120) < distributed_lock_timeout (set to 180)
Use regedit to verify the setting as shown:

For Oracle 11.2.0.2 32-bit client you must install Patch 22 now. Stop the service
OracleMTSRecoveryService if it exists and disable the service
DistributedTransactionCoordinator BEFORE you install Patch 22.

For Oracle 11.2.0.4 32-bit client there is no patch installation requirement.
