Beginner's guide to installing DSLS on Linux (RHEL 9.3)

Steps will be shown to install DSLS on Linux using RHEL 9.3. Note that you will need at least RHEL 8.6 for all the necessary libraries for this to work.

Go to https://www.3ds.com/support/software-downloads and download the latest version of DSLS


Assuming you are using the Downloads folder for the file. Extract the contents of V6R2024x.FP.CFA.2405.Part_DS_LicenseServer.AllOS.tar in the same location. Note ytan is the user account.

For simplicity, copy the RedHat_Suse folder to the Downloads folder

Open the terminal and type in the following:

sudo -i

then enter the password. You should now see # and ready for the next set of instructions.

Type in

cd /home/ytan/Downloads/RedHat_Suse

Once you are there, type in

./startInstLicServ

The installation should start and you should be able to see the DSLS GUI after.
Right-click on the computer name under Server Definition tab and select Connect. The Status icon should change color.
