Takes down license daemons
lmdown
Use the specified license_file. If this switch is not specified, lmdown looks for the | |
| environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE. If the environment variable is not set, |
| lmdown looks for the file /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat. |
Quiet mode; lmdown does not ask for confirmation. If the switch is not specified, | |
| lmdown asks for confirmation before asking the license daemons to shut down. |
|
|
Description | lmdown sends a message to every license daemon asking it to shut down. The li- |
| cense daemons write out their last messages to the log file, close the file, and exit. |
| All licenses which have been given out by those daemons are rescinded, so that the |
| next time a client program goes to verify its license, it will not be valid. |
| The |
| shutting down the servers causes loss of licenses. |
| Note: lmdown can be used only by a “FLEXlm administrator” (i.e., a member of |
| group lmadmin or, if the lmadmin group does not exist, a member of group 0). |
