The environment variable SPLM_LICENSE_SERVER is being ignored after the installation (or upgrade) of 'NX X' using 'Siemens Software Center'.
The NX syslog file shows that the Cloud Mode is active:
This is caused by the configuration variable SALT_LICENSING_TYPE that exists with the value cloud:
The issue is caused by the addition of the following entry to the file %UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\ugii_env_ug.dat (NX2406) or to the file %UGII_BASE_DIR%\UGII\ugii_env.master (NX 2412), during the installation (or upgrade) of 'NX X' using 'Siemens Software Center':
export SALT_LICENSING_TYPE=cloud
By removing or commenting out this line, the environment variable SPLM_LICENSE_SERVER will be used by NX to point to the license server.
