FlexNet Publisher

Usage

add_LM_LICENSE_FILE <LM_LICENSE_FILE> [OPTIONS]

Option

LM_LICENSE_FILE The first argument MUST be the list of FlexNet Publisher servers. This may be the path to the license file or the port at host. For three-server redundant configurations, separate the list of servers with a comma (,). For multiple daemons, use colons as a separator (semi-colon for Windows).
-lmstat <PATH> Choose a specific sampling command. The default is 'lmstat'.
-tag <TAG> Specify the TAG to identify the license server. The TAG may contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores (_). The use of upper case characters is recommended for style purposes.
-env <NAME> Environment for parsing job.
-debuglog </path/to/log> If provided, extract denial information from a debug log. For a rotating log the name specified must be in the form of <fileName>.@DATE@.log. See Debug Log Monitoring for more details. If the server being monitored is of a triad configuration or if multiple daemons are being served from the server and they each have their own debug log (meaning that their debug logs were enabled via the FlexNet Publisher options file) the add_DEBUG_LOG procedure must be used instead.
-debuglogcheckouts Extract checkout information from debug log. This can be used to monitor checkouts that are shorter in duration than the sampling rate.
-site <SITE> A short (2,3 letters typically) site specification.
-minPeriod <TIMESPEC> Minimum sampling period.
-maxPeriod <TIMESPEC> Maximum sampling period.
-nosplit Keep multiple servers in one tag.
-autokill <TIMESPEC> Kill parsing job after specified time.
-split Split multiple servers specified by a colon-separated (semi-colon for Windows) list into individual tags (default).
-trackdisplay The display field is normally used to indicate what display was used for a checkout. There are cases where some vendors use the display field store information that is not related to the display and some cases where the display contains spaces and other special characters. Because of this, the display field in the checkout line is ignored by default. To override the default and enable tracking the display, use this option.
Note: It is strongly advised to verify that the display field is clean in the lmstat output for the features found in the particular vendor you are tracking before using this option.
-tracksubfeatures A subfeature is a special field that follows the display field and is most often used to indicate that a specific function of a feature is being utilized. An example would be when a token-based feature is checked out, the subfeature will contain the tool that was enabled as a result of checking out the token-based feature. Some vendors use spaces in this field, or the display field (see above), which will result in false subfeatures. Because of this, the subfeatures field is ignored by default. To override the default and enable tracking subfeatures, use this option.
Note: It is strongly advised to verify that the subfeatures field is clean in the lmstat output for the features found in the particular vendor you are tracking before using this option.
-trackreservations Use this option to enable tracking reservations that are displayed in the lmstat output. Reserved licenses that are not used are considered checkouts by Monitor if this option is enabled. The checkouts are for a special user, beginning with "r:", that includes the reservation object name, so that these checkouts can be distinguished from real usage in the Monitor reports. Enabling this option allows Monitor to quickly and easily identify waste that is created as a result of obsolete and overly aggressive reservations. Using this option is also required if you are intent on utilizing the "Anaylze Reservation Overdraft Usage" functionality within the Detailed Plots report.
-tz <TIMEZONE> When parsing a debug log that was generated in a different time zone, specify that timezone with this option so the times will be translated to reflect the localized time zone. Example (PST8PDT).
-minStatPeriod <TIMESPEC> Minimum sampling period for usage.
-maxStatPeriod <TIMESPEC> Maximum sampling period for usage.
-minInfoPeriod <TIMESPEC> Minimum sampling period for expiration dates.
-maxInfoPeriod <TIMESPEC> Maximum sampling period for expiration dates.
-minDebugLogPeriod <TIMESPEC> Minimum sampling period for debug logs.
-maxDebugLogPeriod <TIMESPEC> Maximum sampling period for debug logs.
-infoAutokill <TIMESPEC> Kill info parsing job after specified time.
-statAutokill <TIMESPEC> Kill stat parsing job after specified time.
-debugAutokill <TIMESPEC> Kill debug log parsing job after specified time.
