How can I produce a FlexNet report log for importing usage data into License Statistics?
You can use a report log to import usage information from a FlexNet license server into License Statistics. The steps for producing and importing a report log are described below and should be repeated for each vendor daemon instance you have.
Create an option file. For example:
C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware License Server\Licenses\vmwarelm.opt
Specify the location of the option file in your license file. For example:
SERVER this_host ANY 27000
VENDOR VMWARELM port=27010 "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware License Server\Licenses\vmwarelm.optIn the option file, enable report logs. This will produce the log. For example:
REPORTLOG +"C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware License Server\Licenses\vmwarelm.log
Import the log into License Statistics by placing it in the importlog directory. An example header of a report log is shown below:
