Sybase 15 Server User Manual


 
APPENDIX A SySAM Administration
Installation Guide for UNIX 55
Managing and collecting logs
SAMreport must access report logs on the SySAM license server on which you
want the report. If you are using an unserved license, the report log files must
be on the local machine. If you are using a network license server, the report
log files must be accessible via a network-mounted server. SAMreport does not
manage this task; you must manually copy the reports to the appropriate local
or network machine and map a drive to the network server if necessary.
Note For information on how to manage report logs, including scripts to
automate collection of such logs, see Appendix A of the SAMreport User’s
Guide. To access this guide, go to the Sybase Product Manuals Web site at
Product Manuals at http://www.sybase.com/support/manuals/.

starts a new report log file with the existing file name.
lmpath – allows direct control over license file path settings.
lmremove – releases a failed license to the pool of free licenses.
lmreread – directs the license daemon to reread the license file and to start
any new vendor daemons.
