Have a floating license server that seems to be properly configured. It seems to work fine for ISE and Xilinx License Manager, but when I use Vivado 2013.3 it doesn't seem to be getting licenses. Xilinx License Manager shows that the licenses are there, but when i run Vivado i get the following error:
[Common 17-345] A valid license was not found for feature 'Synthesis' and/or device 'xc7z020'. Please run the Xilinx License Configuration Manager for assistance in determining which features and devices are licensed for your system.

Hi,
Is your license full/webpack ?
Can you run xinfochecker and share xinfo.txt so that one of us will go through it and will suggest you accordingly ?
Regards,
Vanitha.

I have the same issue. I see a valid synthesis license in the “Xilinx License Configuration Manager”
but when I run:
lmutil lmdiag -c 2100@rti-app01 synthesis WARNING: [Common 17-259] Unknown Tcl command 'lmutil lmdiag -c 2100@rti-app01 synthesis' sending command to the OS shell for execution. lmutil - Copyright (c) 1989-2006 Macrovision Europe Ltd. and/or Macrovision Corporation.

FLEXlm diagnostics on Mon 12/2/2013 11:35 ----------------------------------------------------- License file: 2100@rti-app01 ----------------------------------------------------- No licenses for synthesis in this license file
I get no synthesis license.
What could be the problem?

It looks like lmutil is case sensitive. I changed "synthesis" to "Synthesis" and I got:
lmutil lmdiag -c 2100@rti-app01 Synthesis WARNING: [Common 17-259] Unknown Tcl command 'lmutil lmdiag -c 2100@rti-app01 Synthesis' sending command to the OS shell for execution. lmutil - Copyright (c) 1989-2006 Macrovision Europe Ltd. and/or Macrovision Corporation.

Now the question is why Vivado 2013.3 fails to find the license:

Hi,
The version limit of your license is 2013.07. This license doesnot support vivado 2013.3 (which was released on Oct 2013 i.e., 2013.10). Hence the tool errors when you use vivado 2013.3.
Thanks,
Deepika.

Hi,
From the output of lmutil lmdiag command, I can say that you are encountering this issue because of version limit.
You had license with version limit 2013.07 but whereas Vivado 2013.3 require 2013.10 as version limit.
For more information on version limit, see this answer record: http://www.xilinx.com/support/answers/33770.htm
Thanks
