Raw Data

The Raw Data page can be used to view the raw output of the status command for its most recent execution.

This can be useful to debug why a license server is marked as having problems by Monitor. The page includes a drop-down menu at the top of the page to select the raw output per tag.

These pages can be utilized programmatically via a command-line URL parsing utility such as wget. The three pages that are provided, with their respective data shown are:
