                <p>On a supported Windows system, use the following steps:</p>

                    <li class="Numbered_Steps" value="6">Set the parameter(s) 
 in <span style="font-weight: bold;">Start Parameters</span>. For example, 
 -s mylicensefile -l myusage.log -f mytrace.log -tr 7 will have the following 
 result:</li>
                    <li class="Bullets_2" value="7">mylicensefile will be 
 searched by the application for the license code. Any new licenses added 
 to the RMS License Manager will be added to this license file. </li>
                    <li class="Bullets_2" value="8">myusage.log will be created 
 containing all the License Manager usage information (such as, the license 
 server start, shutdown, license request, and license release). </li>
                    <li class="Bullets_2" value="9">mytrace.log will be created 
 containing the License Manager trace logs. Level 7 enables the functions, 
 keys, and errors trace logs.</li>
                </ol>
                <p class="SFNT_Note">The Windows 
 Service Controller ignores the double quotes (“ ”). So, do not use double 
 quotes while setting options, else these will be ignored. For example, 
 if you specify -f aa"aa, then it will be interpreted as &#160;-f 
 aaaa.</p>
