The lmstat output is missing ID label for floating licenses. As a work around we now apply the asset_info string from the license.dat file as well. Note that we can only correctly identify asset info if there is a single "floating" FEATURE/INCREMENT for each license. Otherwise there is no way to determine which should be matched based on lmstat output.. This update also fixes the problem with license status files given a future timestamp.
The problem in parsing the date format with AM/PM has been fixed now. Added server-name in the configuration, to get the correct licenses for the corresponding product.
License collection with licpoll sometimes gave wrong number of licenses. This has now been improved.
Collection of asset info from license.dat and lmutil output.
This patch supports the collection of license usage from the Exceed on Demand License server. The user has to copy the binary for ecsinfo into /opt/openit/bin/, or make a link from /opt/openit/bin/ecsinfo to the binary.
Licpoll starts slightly before the hour (30 seconds). When collection period and offset where set so a valid polling could occur in this interval licpoll collected one polling and stopped (this occurs e.g with polling interval of 60 seconds and offset 40 second). Now licpoll will always correctly wait until the start of the hour before starting with the first polling. For uncounted licenses we now set "available licenses" to max int (2147483647) instead of 1 Fixed problem with recognizing Arbortext License Manager (Elan) output.
This patch fixes a bug in licpoll, due to which licpoll was not writing host name to licpoll data file. The x86_64 binary is recompiled to work with the libraries on RHEL3.
This patch several bugfixes: 1. a bug in licpoll that caused it to crash when encountering a specific error message from the FLEXlm server in the lmstat output. Sometimes when lmstat stops with the following error message: The desired vendor daemon is down. (-97,121) licpoll would crash 2. licpoll would hang when encountering unexpected RLM status output 3. licpoll did not add the "server-name" value when writing output of status data for License Monitor 4. when parsing FLEXlm output with multiple feature versions the License Monitor status file give all feature versions the combined avaialble licenses 5. Error checking on copy function is improved. This may solve some problems with bad disks. NOTE: These problems are not fixed on HPUX due to compilation problems.
