TIMEOUT checks in the licenses if the FlexEnabled application has been inactive for a period longer than the specified time period. The daemon declares a process inactive when it has not received heartbeats from it whereas an active FlexEnabled application sends heartbeats. A TIMEOUT line must be present in the options file in order to take advantage of this feature.
