Tools,” in the FLEXnet Licensing End User Guide for more details.
Enabling the network license server REPORTLOG file
The network license server can produce a REPORTLOG file that records
license use.
Note Asset management reporting capabilities require a report log.
The report log is enabled by adding this command in the options file:
REPORTLOG [+]report_log_path
where report_log_path is the report log file for this vendor daemon. Sybase
recommends that you prepend the report_log_path with a plus (+) character to
append logging entries, otherwise, the file is overwritten each time the daemon
starts.
Note The Replication Server installation automatically creates an options file
with REPORTLOG enabled. The options file, SYBASE.opt, is located in
$SYBASE/SYSAM-2_0/licenses.
Using SAMreport
SAMreport is a report generator that records the license use of FLEXnet-
licensed applications. SAMreport records license use based on license activity
recorded in the FLEXnet report logs, and on selected criteria that includes
product and feature name, user, date and time, and display or host.
