■ Set Up License Timeout on page 115
Here is an example of the contents of an Options file:
REPORTLOG=c:\test\report.rl
BORROW_LOWWATER Autodesk_f1 3
TIMEOUT Autodesk_f1 7200
You can also set up advanced license parameters, such as reserving a license,
restricting license usage, or defining groups of users. To learn more about
setting advanced Options file parameters, see the FLEXnet documentation in
the C:\Program Files\Autodesk Network License Manager\docs\FlexUser folder.
To create an Options file
You should be logged in with Administrator rights when working with the
LMTOOLS utility.
1 Open a text editor, enter the parameters you want, and then save the
document as a file named adskflex.opt to the same location where you
saved the license file.
NOTE Make sure you save the file with the extension .opt. The default
extension .txt is not recognized by the Network License Manager.
2 Do one of the following:
■ (Windows XP) Click Start ➤ Programs ➤ Autodesk ➤ Network
License Manager ➤ LMTOOLS.
■ (Windows Vista) Double-click the LMTOOLS icon on the desktop.
■ (Mac OS X) Launch a Terminal window, navigate to the Autodesk
Network License Manager folder, and enter the following:
./lmutil lmreread -c @hostname-all
Close the Terminal window.
3 (Windows) In the program, on the Start/Stop/Reread tab, click ReRead
License File.
4 (Windows) Close lmtools.exe.
