LMTOOLS Logs

[Anonymous]

HI I'm new here.

I want to make logs of license usage in similar to that shown in LMTOOLS when permforming status Enquiry.

Currently, we are just copying that information and paste it in notepad. I would like to know how to run it in batch, and get that logs automatically.

I am also planning to run the batch on daily basis. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if that's possible (but at the same time I don't know all the ins and outs with LMTOOLS).   I will tag @TravisNave to see if he has any ideas or thoughts.

Thanks Mark.  Matthew,

The license manager will already create a report log file that can be read with programs like SAMreport Lite, OpenLM, or JTB FlexReport.  You can create this log file with an adskflex.opt options file.

For eveything you could possibly want to know about the adskflex.opt Options file for FlexLM, please see my KB article here:

If none of those work for you, you could also use the LMUTIL.EXE in a command line script to get the status enquiry and then pipe it into a log file.  Then set a scheduled task to run your script at intervals of your choice.

Hope this gives you some ideas.

Good Luck!

Here is the Syntax just incase someone needs...

SET SERVERName=MyServer
SET LMTOOLSPath="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Autodesk Network License Manager"
"%LMTOOLSPath%\\lmutil.exe" lmstat -a -c @%SERVERName% >StatusEnquiry.txt
