NX Using NX Launcher ugii_env.dat is not read as per Environment definition.

Is using NX Launcher to start NX in NX Manager mode using only NX as UI for Teamcenter, (no RAC, No Active Workspace). Have 3 Environments defined in NX Launcher and have defined 3 different ugii_env.dat files to be used, one for each Environment.
How to get NX Launcher to read the expected ugii_env.dat when invoking NX?

Solution

The 3 different Environments in NX Launcher is defined as Cust_1, Cust_2 and Cust_3. The 3 different ugii_env.dat files are stored in a folder structure as follows:
D:\apps\PLM_x64\NX\nx_launcher\env\Cust_1\ugii_env.dat
D:\apps\PLM_x64\NX\nx_launcher\env\Cust_2\ugii_env.dat
D:\apps\PLM_x64\NX\nx_launcher\env\Cust_3\ugii_env.dat

In the OEM_Environment_def.xml you need to define a startup override. A typical entry would look like:
-------------------------------
<StartupOverrideList>
 <Override IsRun="true" Name="Custom Script"> <ScriptLocation>D:\workdir\NX\override.bat</ScriptLocation>
 </Override>
</StartupOverrideList>
-------------------------------

In order to read the expected ugii_env.dat based on choice of Environment in NX Launcher the content of the override.bat would look like:
------------------------------
@echo off
set UGII_ENV_FILE=D:\apps\pLM_x64\NX\nx_launcher\env\%UGII_CUSTOMER_ENV_NAME%\ugii_env.dat
exit /b 0
------------------------------
where UGII_CUSTOMER_ENV_NAME carries the Environment choice in NX Launcher.


The solution will of course also work if you run NX native.
