2. REQUIREMENTS
Note:
On Microsoft Windows 8 (64) and 8.1 (64) and Windows Server 2012 (64), version .NET 3.5
must be installed in order to use Submodelling functionality and OLGA Namespace explorer.
This is not part of the OLGA installation.
OLGA INSTALLATION GUIDE Page 3
3. INSTALLATION OF OLGA
The installation program will perform the installation of all necessary components for OLGA
and the Graphical User Interface (GUI).
The installation verifies that all required software components are installed when installing
OLGA.
If you do not have the correct version of Microsoft .NET Framework installed, you are guided
to the download page for .Net 4.5.
.Net 4.5 is backward compatible and if it is installed you do not need version 4.0.
If any of the C++ redistributables are missing, the installation will install these.
When the installation of OLGA starts, follow the instruction on screen. You will get a selection
between a Quick installation and a Custom installation. The quick installation selects all
components and installs to the default installation folder without any further user interaction. In
custom installation, you select which components to install and can also set the installation
folder. The selectable components are:
License manager - SPT License Handler is a license administration tool that utilises
the FlexLM license control system. FlexLM license control has to be installed to run
OLGA, see chapter 4 for details on the installation of SPT License Handler
OLGA Namespace Explorer
OPC servers for non-admin users (optional)
RMO Risk Management Optimisation
OLGA-S and Multiflash toolkit
Multiflash
Desktop shortcut
If you select OPC servers for non-admin users, five OPC servers will be installed (named
OLGAOPCServer, OLGAOPCServer1, OLGAOPCServer2, OLGAOPCServer3 and
OLGAOPCServer4). Use this option to enable users without administrator privileges to run
OLGA simulations using these OPC servers in SERVEROPTIONS.
By default this option is cleared, i.e. users must have administrator privileges to run OLGA
simulations using an OPC server.

By default, Windows 8 does not include .NET 3.5 (include .NET 2.0 and 3.0). However, if you
upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8, .NET Framework 3.5 is fully enabled. Do the
following to make sure this feature is enabled:
Please note that SPT License Handler (FlexLM) is installed as a separate component. To
remove this component, locate SPT License Handler in the list and click the button Remove.
No user interaction is necessary.
If OLGA is running while you attempt to uninstall it, you are asked to close OLGA before the
uninstallation can continue.
If any of the other tools which are installed with OLGA are running while you uninstall OLGA,
you will not get any warning. Note that some files from these tools might not be removed after
the uninstallation is complete. These files can safely be deleted manually.
Note: As of OLGA 2014.2, previous patch installations of OLGA are not uninstalled when you
install a new version of OLGA.

4.1 Requirements
The license control requires that TCP/IP is installed and started on your PC. See section 4.7
for information on how to verify this.
Select Option A if you install OLGA and have a license file that is valid for the same machine
as you use to run OLGA. You will get a local license server that handles your license
Select Option B if your company has a network license server serving all OLGA installations.
You may change this option later by using the License Handler. The sections below give
some more details on Options A-B.
Please note that you need administrator privileges to install a local license server. If you do
not have administrative privileges, this option is disabled.
Normally, default settings for the local license server are given by the installation. If the status
indicator is a green check mark (see below) just close the dialog and start using OLGA.
If the setup is unsuccessful, or you would like to change the default settings, click the
Configure button. The dialog shown below is displayed:
OLGA INSTALLATION GUIDE Page 7
Any problems in the license server setup are described in the Local license server status box.
You may change the following settings;
This setting tells OLGA where to look for the license server. The location should be given in
the format <port>@<host>.
<port> is the port number used by FlexLM. This is normally not used in the
license files.
<host> is the name of your PC. Click Add local server to let the program
determine the name of your server.
Example: @tso
You may specify the location of several license servers by separating each location with a
semicolon. This may be needed in cases where you do not have all licenses on your machine.
If some licenses only are available from a network server you can append the location of the
network license server after your local license server.
License Folder
This setting tells the license server where to find the license files. Enter only the path to the
license folder to enable use of multiple license files. The license server will look for license
files with *.lic extension in the given license folder. Default location is C:\Program Files\SPT
Group\Licenses.
FlexLM Folder
The FlexLM folder contains the license daemons; lmgrd.exe and scplmd.exe. Default location
is C:\Program Files\SPT Group\FlexLM.
OLGA INSTALLATION GUIDE Page 8
The license server is normally installed after an OLGA installation. This button can be used if
the license server for some reason is uninstalled. All settings described above must be given
before installing the license server.
Click this button if you want to uninstall the local license server.
Note: The license daemons are not removed, but the license server is stopped. It can easily
be installed again by clicking the Install license server button.
You must restart the license server if a new license file is added to the license folder.
Instead of running a local license server you may connect to a company wide license server.
This enables several users to share a pool of floating licenses. To configure your machine to
use an existing network license server, select Connect to a network license server and click
the Configure button.
Enter the location of the network server. The location should be given in the format
<port>@<host> e.g. @server1.
<port> is the port number used by FlexLM. This port number can be set in the license
file.
<host> is the name of the license server. Consult the server responsible or the license
file located on the server.
You may specify the location of several license servers by separating each with a semicolon.
The Schlumberger License Server Version 2015.1 must be installed manually. The installation
setup follows the OLGA installation package. The Schlumberger License Server Version
2015.1 is used to license Multiflash technology in OLGA. It will be installed in parallel with the
SPT License Handler, and the license servers can be run at the same computer.
Only 4.0 client profile is required if you do not install OLGA Namespace Explorer or SLB
License Manager.
The OLGA installation comprises both a 32 bits version and a 64 bits version of RMO.
Depending on the operating system on your computer, the 32 bits or 64 bits version will be
installed. This is handled automatically by the installer.

1. Start the License Manager from the FlexLM subfolder under the OLGA folder at the
Start menu.
2. Click the Configure button.
Note: If the license file is for your local PC, save it locally. If the license file is for a common
server, save it on the server.

In this section you will find information on how to handle TCP/IP depending on your system
configuration. The configuration will usually be one of the following:
If you are unable to run a license daemon on your PC, please contact us and our support
function for further assistance. In most cases however, you will be using the standard
licensing strategy, and complete the installation according to one of the four situations
mentioned above.
