Moving to the 4.0 License Manager Module
New License Manager Module and ReportingNew in GeoSystems Monitor is a module that can monitor and report on your FlexNet Publishing License Manager® ex. esri, ACAD, FME or most any other application that utilizes the FlexNet Publishing License Manager (FlexLM®)license software. Previous versions of Geosystems monitor could monitor and chart these license managers, but each license type or chart required a separate point/check. The NEW License module needs only ONE point/check per license manager and does the following.
Note: For this check to function correctly, the LMutil.exe file must be copied from the current License Manager to the ‘Scripts’ folder on the GeoSystems Monitor server. Note: Most any version of LMutil.exe will work. Example – From: ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\License10.5\bin’ (on the License Manager server) To: ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoSystemsMonitor\scripts’ (on the GeoSystems Monitor server) Adding a License Manager Container1. Click Add Container on the left bar of the UI. 2. Click Other, click License then click next. 3. Fill out the fields in the Add a New Monitoring Container
4. Click Create Container. A new Container is added on the current Tab in the GeoMon UI. 5. Once the point has run successfully, the point will turn green, and data is now being stored. 6. Once the point/check is setup, click on the point, turn Alerting on and select the Alert Contact IDs you would like to be notified if needed. 7. Next goto the License Manager screen to continue configuration. Adding a License Manager Point to an Existing Container1. Add a new point and select – License Manager Module(New) 2. Fill out the fields in the Add a New Monitoring Point
3. Click Create Monitor Point 4. Once the point has run successfully, the point will turn green, and data is now being stored 5. Once the point/check is setup, click on the point, turn Alerting on and select the Alert Contact IDs you would like to be notified if needed. 6. Next goto the License Manager screen to continue configuration. TroubleshootingSometimes the port is unknown on which a license manager is running or the communications with the license manager is not working correctly. To aid in trouble shooting there are two parameter that can be entered in the - Enter Vendor field. FindPort - Will help find the port used by the license manager. Uses the 'Port' parameter as the starting point, normally 27000, and incrementally checks upward several ports. Debug - Creates a log entry for the COMPLETE output of the lmutil query. Good for troubleshooting issues with licenses and types.
