How to monitor license utilization?

Modified on Wed, 25 Feb at 4:23 PM

Context 


If you use Network License mode, it might be useful to know who is currently using licenses. 

You can consult the log file for a chronological usage. 

The license log file is located here:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\lservsta 


You can also use a program named License Manage Administration, also known as Wlmadmin.


Prerequisites

  • You have installed the License Server  
  • You have prepared the WlmAdmin program on a computer that has network access to the License Server
    WlmAdmin is part of the Sentinel RMS Tools package.

SentinelRMS x.y.z-WlmAdmin package can be downloaded from the Download page


Procedure 


From the License Server or from any computer that has access to the License Server: 

  • Start WlmAdmin.
  • Find the server node, and unfold it. 

The server can be discovered (Subnet Servers) or specifically defined (cf. Edit > Defined Server List)

  • Find the license feature node and unfold it.
    If some clients are still using licenses, a Clients node will be present.
  • Unfold the Clients node.
Information related to the clients is displayed:


Sentinel RMS 10.2


Sentinel RMS 9.6
