The installer now reduces the number of configuration files when more than one Flame Family product is installed. Some information about project server installation.
Some files previously available in /opt/Autodesk/<product version>/bin are now available in /opt/Autodesk/.<flame family version>/bin. This way files needed by multiple products are no longer duplicated for every product but shared between them.
Utilities are no longer duplicated when you install the different components of the Flame Family: installing Flame, Flame Assist, and Flare only installs one copy of each Hardware Validation, Service Monitor, Setup. See Utilities Improvements.
Flame Family products installed on Linux contain a new script, /opt/Autodesk/<product>/bin/INSTALL_PROJECTSERVER. This script installs and configures the software to run as a project server.
The project server configuration is useful if you want to set up multiple Flames sharing projects for collaborative workflows.
This script is best used in a headless standalone system that will host projects for a small workgroup of Flame Family systems. No GPU is required on the system that runs the project server.
The script installs the minimum set of services required for sharing projects from a central location. It lets you redirect the storage of your project metadata to a different but persistent mount point.
To install a project server:
INSTALL_DKU --nonvdriver
INSTALL_PROJECTSERVER --backburner --cidr <subnet of your workgroup> --dataroot <path where your projects should be stored>
INSTALL_PROJECTSERVER --backburner --cidr 192.168.1.0/24 --dataroot /var/opt/Autodesk
