As quickly and simply as possible:

1. Download the package and save it in the directory under which you want to install the program (say, /opt).
2. Open a terminal and go to this directory (like, cd /opt).
3. Type tar xvfj vnl-2008.10.0-Linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 (assuming you want the 64-bit package).

That's it! (Plus installing the license, but that's a separate thing.)

how to install the license file on server with 8 CPU?

I'm not exactly sure what kind of license you have... The license normally depends on the MAC address (unless it's a DEMO license), but it does not depend on whether you run Windows/Linux. To run a license server requires a floating license, indicated by the word "SERVER" on the first line in the license file. Getting ATK to run in parallel is described in detail in the manual and is in principle straightforward but does require some administration skills.
