HOW TO GET AND INSTALL A QUESTASIM 10.7c RELEASE
===================================================

This release uses new licensing version which needs to have license servers
upgraded to FLEXnet v11.14.1.3.

For floating licenses, it will be necessary to verify that the vendor daemon (i.e.,
mgcld) and the license server (i.e., lmgrd) have FLEXnet versions equal to or
greater than 11.14.1.3. If the current FLEXnet version of your vendor daemon and
lmgrd are less than 11.14.1.3 then it will be necessary to stop your license server
and restart it using the vendor daemon and lmgrd contained in this release.

If you use node locked licenses you don't need to do anything. This release will
update licensing to MSL v2017_1 with MGLS v9.17_10.2.0 and PCLS v9.17.10.2.0

In summary, this release uses the following license versions:

• FLEXnet v11.14.1.3
• MSL v2017_1
• MGLS v9.17_10.2.0
• PCLS v9.17.10.2.0

PLATFORM SUPPORT NOTE:
Starting 10.8, support for windows 7 and 8.1 will be dropped

DOWNLOAD/INSTALL NOTE:
When downloading UNIX executables with the ".mis" file extension on a Windows box,
please make sure that the "Save As Type"  is set to "All Files".
This is important in order to preserve the ".mis" extension. Otherwise Windows may
append the ".mis" extension with an additional extension which will cause problems
with your installation.

Never overlay a new Questa Sim release over the top of an old release.
Either remove the old release first or install the new release to a
different location. For win32 installations always use uninstall to
remove an old release. Using uninstall will remove the the old releases'

1) Install Release

-- For Unix or Linux --

A complete release contains the install file, the base install file, the platform
specific install file(s) for your machine type(s) and the documentation install

The installer file, the base install file, the documentation install file and all
platform specific install files need to be downloaded to the same directory
location.

Execute the Installer file (install.<platform>) specific to the platform you are
installing from to begin the installation process.

If you are installing from a x86 or x86_64 desktop running Linux, use install.linux

Use the MSI interface to install the tool to the locations required. The MSI
interface provides documentation by selecting the Help button at the top of the
window.

Add the Questa Sim executables directory to your PATH environment variable:

PATH=<install_path>/<platform>

where <platform> can be linux, or linux_x86_64.

Never do multiple Windows installs into the same target folder/directory.

Always use a new folder/directory as the target for each Windows install.
