FlexNet License Reporting
Using the Windchill RV&S administration client or integrity stats command, you can track FlexNet license usage, such as peak usage and average usage for a license type over a period of time. Reporting on license usage is also useful if you use floating licenses and want to view metrics for your current license usage to determine if you should purchase more seat licenses for your users, or convert users from floating to named licenses.
By default, the following FlexNet license usage information is recorded at regular intervals and stored on the Windchill RV&S server:
Server License Usage
Logs Windchill RV&S server license usage on a per-license basis. If multiple Windchill RV&S servers point to the same FlexNet server, only licenses used by the current server are recorded.
The server license monitor is controlled by the mksis.serverLicenseInterval property and configured under Configuration > Properties in the Windchill RV&S administration client. By default, server license usage is polled every 60 seconds. The server license monitor cannot collect statistics more frequently than once every 60 seconds. If the policy is set to a non-zero value less than 60 seconds, the polling interval is set to 60 seconds.
FlexNet License Usage
Logs FlexNet license usage on a per-license basis. If multiple Windchill RV&S servers point to the same FlexNet server, global license usage across all Windchill RV&S servers is recorded.
The flex license monitor is controlled by the mksis.flexLicenseInterval policy and configured under Configuration > Properties in the Windchill RV&S administration client. By default, FlexNet license monitoring is disabled. The FlexNet license monitor cannot collect statistics more frequently than once every 300 seconds (5 minutes). If the policy is set to a non-zero value less than 300 seconds, the polling interval is set to 3600 seconds (1 hour).
If multiple Windchill RV&S servers point to the same FlexNet license server and you want to record FlexNet license usage, you should enable FlexNet license monitoring on one server only. If FlexNet license monitoring is enabled on more than one Windchill RV&S server, redundant data is collected, placing extra load on the FlexNet server.
Licenses Denied
Logs the number of times that each license is not granted.
