The information on this page refers to License Statistics v4.0, which adds support for Felics. If you are running a previous version of License Statistics, please refer to the documentation relevant to your version: v3.11 documentation; v3.10 documentation.

In order to run the License Statistics Usage Monitor, you must meet the following requirements, depending on the license management service(s) used. You must provide the path to one or more of these utilities as appropriate in the configuration file; see Configuring the License Statistics Usage Monitor. If your site uses both Unix and Windows machines, be sure to use the utility that corresponds with the platform on which the Usage Monitor is installed.

HASP

HASP server logs often do not contain all the information necessary for accurate statistics. If you notice problems with the data imported from the logfile, configure the HASP server to add the value OPEN_SESSIONS to the last column in the logfile.

License Statistics can handle HASP logs with or without the OPEN_SESSIONS value set. However, a single logfile cannot both include and exclude the OPEN_SESSIONS value, so you must import logfiles that include the OPEN_SESSIONS value separately from logfiles that do not include this value.

Felics

n/a

Only logs that are written using advanced logging are supported.

You must enable placing the username in the log file by setting the option SHOWUSER to TRUE in the felics.ini file.
