You can edit the USAGE_LEVEL setting in the configuration file to specify whether to generate a STANDARD report that does not include user information, or a DETAILED report that includes the username, hostname and ipaddress IP address for each checkout and checkin request. The USAGE_LEVEL setting is set to STANDARD in the configuration file by default. In addition, you can set the USAGE_WRITE_INTERVAL option in the configuration to specify the number of pay-per-use actions (checkouts, checkins, etc.) after which  that should occur before pay-per-use records will be written to the pay-per-use database file by setting the USAGE_WRITE_INTERVAL option in the configuration usage database file.

The usage database can be verified and printed to screen using the lmxendutil -readusagedb command. (See LM-X End-user utility for information about using this command.) This command reads the database, performs a verification, and prints the usage table content to the screen. You can review the content to ensure its validity by verifying the id ID ranges; however, never attempt to manipulate the database.
