lmremove(1)                                                        lmremove(1)



NAME
     lmremove - remove specific licenses and return them to license pool

SYNOPSIS
     lmremove [ -c license_file ] { feature user host display } |
     { -h feature serverhost port handle }

DESCRIPTION
     lmremove allows the system administrator to remove a single user's
     license for a specified feature.  This could be required in the case
     where the licensed user was running the software on a node that
     subsequently crashed.  This situation will sometimes cause the license to
     remain unusable.  lmremove will allow the license to return to the pool
     of available licenses.

PARAMETERS
     There's 2 modes for lmremove.  In the first mode:  feature, user, host
     and display describe the user's license which is to be removed.  These
     parameters should be entered exactly as they are displayed by lmstat. In
     the second mode, the handle displayed by lmstat is used:  serverhost port
     handle appear together in parentheses in lmstat output, .e.g,
     joe cloud7 /dev/ttyp5 (v1.000) (cloud9/7654 102), start Fri 10/29 18:40

OPTIONS
     -c license_file
               Use the specified license_file.  If this switch is not
               specified, lmremove looks for the environment variable
               LM_LICENSE_FILE.  If that environment variable is not set,
               lmremove looks for the file
               /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat.  If no -c option is
               specified,

     -h        Indicates removal by handle number.
