I'm facing a license problem on one of our client machines and I'm not sure how to begin debugging it. We have licenses for Cadence and Synopsys tools. If I run virtuoso, I get the following error:

Code:
*ERROR* (DB-320001): Unable to obtain the 'Cadence(R) Design Framework II' license. Run 'lmstat -f 111' to see license, server, and usage information. For more information, see the sections related to license maintenance in the 'Cadence License Manager' manual.

However, my environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE points to the license server correctly. Additionally, virtuoso works fine on other clients. I also checked if all licenses have been used up and this is not the case. If I try using hspice, I see the following message:

Code:
lic:  
lic: FLEXlm: v11.2.1 
lic: USER:   ashwith              HOSTNAME: vlsi29 
lic: HOSTID: 3860775ab6b7         PID:      10403 
lic: The desired vendor daemon is down.  Check the lmgrd log file, or try lmreread. Feature:       
lic: Using FLEXlm license files: 
lic: 27000@10.107.90.17:27000@10.107.90.16:27000@10.107.90.14:27000@10.107.90.15:27002@10.107.90.12
lic: Unable to checkout (hspice) 
lic:   
lic: total license checkout elapse time:       11.43(s)

In the output above, 10.107.90.17/16/14 are the servers which have the Cadence and Synopsys license servers running. I've tried restarting the license daemons but that didn't make a difference either. We're using CentOS 6.8 64 bit as our OS. What am I missing in our set up?
