  1. In the Root property, select [Program Files (32-bit)].
  2. Set the Executable Path to NILicensingCmd.exe. 
    National Instruments\Shared\License Manager\NILicensingCmd.exe
  3. In the Arguments property, provide the arguments for adding one or more Volume License Servers: 
    /addservers servername[:portnumber][,servername[:portnumber],...]

    Where servername and portnumber are replaced by the name of your volume license server and the port to access it (if unspecified it will use the default, 27000).
