NAME

Flexnet::lmutil - Convenient OO-interface for Flexnet license server utility lmutil

VERSION

Version 1.2

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'
    }
}

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'
            },
        ]
    },
},
...
