lmstat
The lmstat utility helps you monitor the status of all network licensing activities, including:
| • | Daemons that are running |
| • | License files |
| • | Users of individual features |
| • | Users of features served by a specific vendor daemon |
| • | BORROW licenses borrowed |
The lmstat utility prints information that it receives from the license server; therefore, it does not report on unserved licenses such as uncounted licenses. To report on an uncounted license, the license must be added to a served license file and the application must be directed to use the license server for that license file (via @host, port@host, or USE_SERVER). Queued users and licenses shared due to duplicate grouping are also not returned by lmstat.
Usage
lmstat [-a [--no-user-info]] [-asec] [-c license_file_list] [-f [feature] [--no-user-info]] [-i [feature]] [-s[server]] [-S [vendor]] [-t timeout_value] [-proj]

|

|
