avalanche test on linux machine keep complaining about not able connect to license server

avalanche 4.87 test works fine in Windows machine. When we export it to a linux machine, the test keeps complaining about likes this

Download ABL log files to /root/Project_0001-Test_0001/ablLogs
ERROR: (cannot_reserve_port) Reserve failed for ports 1 slot 1 at 10.128.64.231 :
Error mapping port [//10.128.64.231/1/1]

logs show something like this, but setting the recommend `SPIRENTD_LICENSE_FILE` did not help

2018-12-13 01:52:51,211 ERROR -- [BLL]--error = in perform: Failed to connect to a license server.  Please check that a license server is available and the 'SPIRENTD_LICENSE_FILE' environment variable is set to the server's address/hostname.

we chased it down to this 

# tclsh 
% package require av
4.87.1286 
% av::login admin spt_admin
1477632929 
% av::connect "10.128.64.231" -type "STC" 
physicalchassis1 
% av::reserve "10.128.64.231/1/1" 
(cannot_reserve_port) Reserve failed for ports 1 slot 1 at 10.128.64.231 :
Error mapping port [//10.128.64.231/1/1]
Failed to connect to a license server.  Please check that a license server is configured and available.
Equipment > Virtual Licensing Configuration

how should we set the license server information ?

we solved this by manually add the license server into test.tcl 

# --- reserve ports -----------------------        
set license_servers [list [av::get licenseservermanager1 -servers]] 
if {[lsearch  $license_servers 10.128.64.222] < 0} { 
 av::dputs STATUS -nonewline "Adding license server ..."
 av::perform createLicenseServer licenseservermanager1 -server 10.128.64.222 
 av::dputs STATUS " - done" 
}

Not sure this is a feature or a bug. But hope this also could help someone
