lmremove
Removes a user license and returns it to the license pool
lmremove [–c license_file] [feature] [user] [host] [display]
Use the specified license file. If this switch is not specified, lmremove looks for
the environment variable
LM_LICENSE_FILE. If the environment variable is not
set, it looks for the file /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat.
Remove only from the specified feature.
The
user to be removed.
Node from which the
user is to be removed.
lmremove allows the system administrator to remove a single user’s license for a
specified feature. This might be required in the case where the licensed user is run-
ning the software on a node that subsequently crashed. This situation can some-
times cause the license to remain unusable. lmremove allows the license to be re-
turned to the pool of available licenses.
lmremove removes all instances of user on node host at the specified display from
usage of feature. The end-user system administrator should protect the execution of
lmremove since removing a user’s license can be disruptive.
Note: lmremove can be used only by a “FLEXlm administrator” (i.e., a member
of group lmadmin or, if the lmadmin group does not exist, a member of group 0).
