Environment Variables
126 FLEXnet Licensing End User Guide
FLEXLM_DIAGNOSTICS
Used for debugging where applications don’t print
FLEXnet Licensing error message text. Set to 1, 2, or 3,
depending on the amount of diagnostic information
desired. See “FLEXLM_DIAGNOSTICS.” (Version
5.0+ clients)
FLEXLM_TIMEOUT
Windows only: Sets the timeout value a FLEXenabled
application uses when attempting to connect to a license
server system port in the range 27000-27009.
Values are in microseconds, within the range 0 through
2147483647. The default setting is 100000
microseconds.
LM_BORROW
Used for initiating license borrowing and setting the
borrow period. See “Initiating License Borrowing” for
more details. On UNIX platforms,
$HOME/.flexlmborrow is used for the registry instead
of
$HOME/.flexlmrc.
LM_PROJECT
LM_PROJECT
’s value is logged in the report log file and
later reported on by FLEXnet Manager. Limited to 30
characters. (v5.0+ client required.)
This can also be used to RESERVE, INCLUDE, etc.
licenses with PROJECT. For example:
RESERVE 1 f1 PROJECT airplane
v5.0+ clients and v7.0+ vendor daemon are required for
this feature.
LM_SERVER_HIGHEST_FD
Used to set the highest file descriptor value, above
which the license server will not access.
LM_UTIL_CASE_SENSITIVE
Used by the FLEXlm utilities. If set to 1, the utilities
process license file lines as case sensitive. By default,
this variable is set to
0; license files are treated as case
insensitive. This environment variable is applicable only
when the license server, itself, has been configured by
your vendor to treat license files in a case sensitive
manner.
TCP_NODELAY
Improves FLEXnet license server system performance
when processing license requests. Set to 1 to enable
performance enhancements. Use with caution: when
enabled it may cause an increase in network traffic.
