Host-locked Licenses
Host-locked software licenses allow users to run an unlimited number of copies of the
product on each of the hosts that has a license.
Configuring host-locked licenses
You can configure a Boolean resource to represent the software license, and configure
your application to require the license resource. When users run the application, LSF
chooses the best host from the set of licensed hosts.
See “Boolean resources” on page 206 for information about configuring Boolean
resources.
See the Platform LSF Reference for information about the
lsf.task file and
instructions on configuring resource requirements for an application.
