NAME Flexnet::lmutil - Convenient OO-interface for Flexnet license server utility lmutil VERSION Version 1.3 DESCRIPTION Flexnet::lmutil is a small wrapper around the Flexnet license server utility lmutil, currently implementing the sub-functions lmstat and lmremove. The module parses the output of lmstat and returns an easy-to-use data structure. This makes it easy to work further with lmstat output for e.g. web pages, monitoring plugins etc. SYNOPSIS use Flexnet::lmutil; my $lmutil = new Flexnet::lmutil ( lm_license_path => 'port@host', ... ); $status = $lmutil->lmstat ( feature => 'feature', OR daemon => 'daemon', OR 'all' ); $lmutil->lmremove ( feature => 'feature', serverhost => 'host', port => 'port', handle => 'handle' ); DETAILS Possible arguments for the constructor are: `lm_license_path' either the full pathname of the license file or the string `port@host' or even `port1@host1:port2@host2'... `verbose' show command line call `testfile' textfile containing lmstat output (for testing), does not run lmstat Possible arguments for `lmstat' are: `feature' get info about feature usage `daemon' get info about daemon usage `all' get info about usage of all daemons and features `lmstat' returns a hash reference with the following keys: * `server' * `vendor' * `feature' server points to another structure like 'server' => { 'elba.uni-paderborn.de' => { 'ok' => 1, 'status' => 'UP' } }, vendor points to a structure like 'vendor' => { 'cdslmd' => { 'ok' => 1, 'status' => 'UP v11.11', 'version' => '11.11' } } feature points to a structure like 'feature' => { 'MATLAB' => { 'reservations' => [ { 'reservations' => '1', 'group' => 'etechnik-labor', 'type' => 'HOST_GROUP' } ], 'issued' => '115', 'used' => '36', 'users' => [ { 'serverhost' => 'dabu.uni-paderborn.de', 'startdate' => 'Wed 8/12 17:18', 'port' => '27000', 'licenses' => 1, 'display' => 'bessel', 'host' => 'bessel', 'handle' => '4401', 'user' => 'hangmann' }, ] }, }, ...
