lmdown
Takes down license daemons
lmdown [–c license_file] [–q]
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.
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All licenses which have been given out by those daemons are rescinded, so that the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 end-user system administrator should protect the execution of lmdown since
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).
