4.6.30 What Should I Do if an Error Message is Reported in the Debug Log File when a Floating License Daemon is Started on a Server?

Symptom: The following error message appears in the debug log file when a floating license daemon starts on a server:
(snpslmd) Error: Incompatible vendor daemon found. The vendor daemon is not supported in version
Error: Please upgrade to the latest SCL version. Go to www.synopsys.com/support/licensing-installation-computeplatforms/licensing.html.

Cause: The error does not interfere with the Libero flow and can be caused by the following reasons:

  • The Synopsys tools (SynplifyPro) verifies all the license daemons in a license file.
  • SynplifyPro recognizes only the Synopsys license daemon snpslmd, and reports the other daemons as incompatible.

  • The Microchip license file consists of three license daemons (actlmgrd, mgcld, and snpslmd). Synopsys tools always issue two incompatible error messages: one for actlmgrd and the other for mgcld. Therefore, these incompatible error messages can be safely ignored.
