Options File

The options file has the following basic format:

{INCLUDEEXCLUDE} feature {USERHOSTDISPLAYGROUP} name

NOLOG {INOUTDENIEDQUEUED}

GROUP group–name member–list

LINGER feature checkout-time

REPORTLOG filename

RESERVE numlic feature {USERHOSTDISPLAYGROUP} name

TIMEOUT feature idletime

Lines beginning with a pound sign (#) indicate comments and are ignored.

INCLUDE/EXCLUDE

INCLUDE and EXCLUDE specify which users (or hosts, displays, or groups) are allowed to use a particular feature. Any user who is EXCLUDEd from a feature is not able to use that feature. Specifying an INCLUDE line has the effect of excluding everyone else from that feature; thus, only those users specifically INCLUDEd are able to use that feature. The INCLUDEEXCLUDE line has the following format:

{INCLUDEEXCLUDE} feature {USERHOSTDISPLAYGROUP} name

NOLOG

NOLOG causes messages of the specified type to be filtered out of the daemon’s log file. Specifying a NOLOG option reduces the amount of output to the log file, which can be useful in those cases where the log file grows too quickly. The NOLOG line has the following format:

NOLOG {INOUTDENIEDQUEUED}

GROUP

GROUP defines collections of users, which can then be used in RESERVE, INCLUDE, or EXCLUDE commands. The GROUP line has the following format:

GROUP group–name member–list

LINGER

LINGER prevents the license manager from taking back a license until the indicated checkout-timehas expired, regardless of whether or not the license token is being used. The LINGER line has the following format:

LINGER feature checkout-time
