FlexNet Autoconfigurator is active by default; make sure it is activated to turn on the automatic configuration of FlexNet license manager data collection. If it is inactive, follow these instructions to activate:

Windows
Unix

Open a command prompt with Administrator level privileges.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the automatic configuration of the license data collection, run the command:

Command Syntax
```
