I have multiple floating license files for the same server and want to combine them into one. How can I achieve this?

The User's guide on the server will be installed after the FLEXlm license manager is installed.
Please refer to 4.3 Combining Multiple License Files session in Chapter 4: Using the Client Application
for the First Time.
Here is the instructions on this part.
To combine license server files of different products into a single license file, follow these steps:
1. Concatenate the files
2. Remove the duplicate SERVER and VENDOR lines
To combine license server files for the same product:
1. Concatenate the files
2. Remove the duplicate SERVER and VENDOR lines
3. Remove the PACKAGE line.
Note that expiration dates can be different, and the number of seats can be different. For nonserver
licenses, the INCREMENT line is replaced by a FEATURE line. If a license server file has a
FEATURE line instead of an INCREMENT line, you must generate a new license.
