Removes a user license and returns it to the license pool

lmremove [–c

–clicense_file

license_file] [feature] [user] [host] [display]

Use the specified license file. If this switch is not specified, lmremove looks for the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE. If the environment variable is not set, it looks for the file /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat.

feature	Remove only from the specified feature.
user	The user to be removed.
host	Node from which the user is to be removed.

Description	lmremove allows the system administrator to remove a single user’s license for a
	specified feature. This might be required in the case where the licensed user is run-
	ning the software on a node that subsequently crashed. This situation can some-
	times cause the license to remain unusable. lmremove allows the license to be re-
	turned to the pool of available licenses.
	lmremove removes all instances of user on node host at the specified display from
	usage of feature. The end-user system administrator should protect the execution of
	lmremove since removing a user’s license can be disruptive.
	Note: lmremove 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).
