-s <server_name>
Displays the status of the specified server node(s).
-t <value>
Sets the lmstat time-out to the specified value.
lmdown
The
lmdown
utility allows for the graceful shutdown of all license daemons (both
lmgrd
and all vendor daemons) on all nodes.
Syntax
lmdown
-c [<license_file_path>]
If not supplied here, the license file used is in either
/user/local/flexlm/licenses/
license.dat
, or the license file pathname in the environment variable
LM_LICENSE_FILE (p54).
The system administrator should protect the execution of
lmdown
, since shutting
down the servers will cause loss of licenses.
lmremove
The
lmremove
utility allows the system administrator to remove a single user’s
license for a specified feature. This could be required in the case where the
licensed user was running the software on a node that subsequently crashed. This
situation will sometimes cause the license to remain unusable.
lmremove
will
allow the license to return to the pool of available licenses.
Syntax
lmremove
-c <file> <feature> <user> <host> <display>
lmremove
removes all instances of user on the node host (on the display, if
specified) from usage of feature. If the optional
-c <file>
switch is specified, the
indicated file will be used as the license file. The system administrator should
protect the execution of
lmremove
, since removing a user’s license can be
disruptive.
