lsmon: Monitor License Manager Transactions
-
This is related to the Full Network Client Installations using the Sentinel RMS License Manager (Windows) or Server (Linux), version 9.7.
-
The tool is applicable to Windows and Linux (32-bit and 64-bit) operating systems. See Windows: Installing the Sentinel RMS License Manager or Linux: Installing the Sentinel RMS License Server.
Platforms
Windows, Linux 32-bit, Linux 64-bit
The tool retrieves information about all features currently licensed by the Sentinel RMS License Manager, licenses, and clients.
On UNIX computers, you can use "Poll-interval-in-seconds" to specify that lsmon should keep monitoring and reporting usage activity instead of displaying information once and stopping. If specified, lsmon waits for that many seconds between re-polls of the License Manager.
lsmon monitors all licensed applications supported by a License Manager. If the License Manager supports licensed applications from multiple vendors, then all licenses for all vendors are displayed.
- On Windows, use
lsmon[Server-host] - On Linux 32-bit, use
lsmon[Poll-interval_in_seconds] [Server-host] - On Linux 64-bit, use
lsmon64[Poll-interval_in_seconds] [Server-host]
Options
- Poll-interval_in_seconds: Enable periodic update at indicated rate. This option is supported on UNIX only).
- Server-host: The name of the computer on which the License Manager is running. If Server-host is omitted, lsmon will attempt to talk to the Sentinel RMS License Manager on the computer indicated in the LSHOST environment variable or in the LSHOST (or lshost) file. If the variable or the file does not exist, then it will attempt to contact a License Manager using the broadcast mechanism. If lsmon fails to find a Sentinel RMS License Manager, it will display an error message and exit.
