Legacy Tool Support

In March 2015, Synopsys will remove authorizations for the avantd and synopsysd legacy daemons from its standard common vendor daemon-format (cvd-format) license files. This license file format change means that you will not be able to run certain older software versions.

For each affected tool, the table below lists the latest tool version that is incompatible with the new license file format, and then lists the earliest tool version that is compatible. If you need to use a tool version that is listed as incompatible, please contact your Account Manager to special request legacy-format licenses.
