Set Up and Use an Options File
With an Options file, you set configuration options for managing licenses on
each license server that you set up. An Options file sets parameters that the
license file reads and the lmgrd program executes.
If you want to have the same license behavior on some or all of your license
servers, you must save the same Options file to each of those license servers.
If you want to specify different license behavior on different license servers,
you must create an Options file for each license behavior. You must save each
Options file to the server where you want specific license behavior.
NOTE For Options file changes to take effect on a license server, you must save
the Options file, and then use lmtools.exe to reread the license file.
With an Options file, you can do the following:
■ Create a Report Log on page 114
■ Configure License Borrowing on page 114
