13 allows selection of "All" license servers when selecting which license servers to view from the General Information area of feature usage pages. If you are using a version previous to v6.13, see documentation for previous versions.

The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6.

18 and newer, which

removed the legacy menu structure that allowed access to reports available prior to v6.14. 


The pages under the Features section in the left navigation pane let you see realtime usage, history of usage, user history, history of utilization (percentage), and (when applicable) denials.data and historical statistics for the features you are monitoring. You can also click on a feature name in any Feature column in a grid names in grids (for example, from the Current Utilization grid on the Dashboard or the License Server Current Usage grid under the License Server sectiona grid that has been pinned to the Dashboard) to automatically go to open the Realtime Usage History page for that feature. (Note that License Statistics accommodates having multiple servers for one application.)

All feature usage pages include a General Information area at the top of the page.

To choose the feature for which to view statistics, use the License Server and Feature pick lists in the General Information area at the top of the page. You can select either an individual license server or a license server group from the License Servers pick list. Some pages also let you select "All" license servers/features for viewing. After selecting the license server/license server group, the Feature pick list will then contain all features within that license server/license server group for you to choose from. The General Information area shows identifying information for the selected feature (which can be edited), including:

Throughout License Statistics, features shown in lists include a separate entry for each version of that feature, and are named feature_version. Versioning provides a finer granularity to report results, which is useful when you have multiple versions of particular features that you want to track individually. For example, under IBM LUM, the Catia MD2 application cost varies depending on version, so Feature Versioning can help when considering budget for one version versus another version.

Feature names in lists also include the feature type, which can be Floating, Nodelocked, or Token. Note that if a given feature has more than one type, it will be listed in lists once for each type.

For example, say you have a feature called F1, for which you have a floating installation of version 1.0 and both a node-locked and floating installation of version 2.0. This would appear in Feature lists as follows:

F1_1.0 (Floating)

F1_2.0 (Floating)
