what is PLIST in FlexLM licence manager

I just applied my Revit 9.0 network license file info into the FlexLM
License Manager... no problems there, all 5 licenses of Revit 9 appear as
available. But I notice, with Revit 9.0 that there's an additional block of
text in the license file, perhaps related to the new "cascading licensing"
behavior. When I restarted the FlexLM license manager, there's a new entry
that reads "Users of PLIST: (Total of 1 license issued; Total of 0 licenses
in use).

Does anyone know what PLIST is?

PLIST is the new license rollover feature for the 2007 series. It allows products like Mechanical 2007 to take an AutoCAD license if its licenses are all used up and others are available.

Hi Mark,

Plist in your case only concern this :
D07:52600REVIT_9_0F:52500REVITS_9_0F

If you have only licence for REVIT 9.0 then Plist will have no impact.
If you buy Revit Series Licences then :
if all licence of revit 9 are used then FlexLM try to have a Revit series 9
if avalaible.

Thanks everyone. I'm guessing that PLIST stands for Product List?... but
I'm just guessing. Anyone know for sure?

Mark,

It refers to Priority List, as in the priority of cascading licenses.

There is a small amount of information on cascading licenses in the
following document:
