Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
Prior to using your dongle-based licenses you must install a dongle driver. If you have counted license keys, the Synopsys Common Licensing software must also be installed and started. (Uncounted keys do not require SCL. However, uncounted keys cannot be used over a remote desktop connection.)
For Linux, see the DONGLE_README.txt file in the scl_root\platform\drivers directory for setup instructions.
For Windows OS:
Make sure the OS is supported. (Windows 7 and Windows Server 2012 are no longer supported.)
See the SCL Release Notes in the scl_root\doc directory for information on supported versions of Windows.
Remove the dongle.
