Supersedes Patch Description

Expand all

Patch 1054 — Fixed bug in LicPoll, IBM LUM polling
If "Group" was missing from the output from i4blt, the LUM poller, parts
of the poll data would be missed by LicPoll.
Patch 1044 — Fixed parsing problem for FLEXlm 11.3 license files
In PACKAGE lines, a field that was previously present in the license
file seems to have been removed. This could cause LicPoll to sometimes
discard components information.
Patch 1013 — LicensePoller: Adding server name given during installation setup to product name
During installation, when setting up license polling, you can input a server
name. This name was previously not accounted for. This patch will cause the
server name to be attached to the product name: <product name>_<server name>,
allowing you to use the server name to distinguish otherwise identical
product names from different license servers.
Patch 1032 — Fixes a bug in LicPoll when poll interval exceeds 5 minutes
If the poll interval for LicPoll was set to a value greater than 5 minutes,
LicPoll would terminate after just one poll (and not run the entire hour).

Installation

Before you install this patch, you need to manually update the LicPoll
configuration file - licpoll.xml, found in:

   [OpeniT-installdir]\Configuration\Components\

Use an xml editor, or a plain text editor.
Scan down until you find the object named "license-types". Below this, you
will have one or more LUM license type objects. (These will typically have
"LUM" in their names, but if you look at the "type" sub-object, all that have
the value "LUM" are LUM license type objects.

For each of these, insert the following at the end, same level as
"status-command":


	<Object>
		<Name>status-command</Name>
		...
	</Object>
 --- Cut & paste the following ---
	<Object>
		<Name>offline-status</Name>
		<Description>Set value to 'true' to activate this offline license type, and 'false' to deactivate.</Description>
		<Value type="Bool">true</Value>
		<SubObjects>
			<Object>
				<Name>arguments</Name>
				<Description>Arguments to the status command.</Description>
				<Value type="String">-s -lco</Value>
			</Object>
		</SubObjects>
	</Object>
 --- End ---
 
Do this for each LUM license type object for which you want to log offline
usage.


Unpack the zip file anywhere on the machine to patch. Run the InstallPatch.exe
application. Once the patch has been installed, you may delete the unpacked
patch directory.

NOTE: The patch must be installed by a user with administrator rights.
