Installing FlexLM only on headless linux server

Hello,
is there a way to only install the MATLAB license manager without any other components? We will be running it from a headless license management server where it makes no sense to install any other component. I'm using the "-installFile" option to install it. When installation succeeds the output is as in the following hastebin: http://hastebin.com/imifigayob.bash What do i need to configure in the install file? As all components are commented out the installer installs everything we are licensed to.
Any help is appreciated. Best regards Sven

Interesting one!
I would not use the Matlab install package. You can install on another machine and get the flexlm install folder, this is what you need to copy to your headless Linux machine. After you have the folder on the headless machine, you need to copy the license file, to the same location as lmgrd file. To start it, execute the start command: lmgrd -c ..., full command is listed here: https://openlm.com/blog/problems-and-solutions-for-the-management-of-flexnet-floating-license-server/
I never did that on a headless machine but if you can copy the folder and file, this must work.
