For those that have absolutely no idea of what I am talking about, this is a license manager, that among other things, is used for Matlab, Abacus, Maple and other engineering software. It runs as a network daemon, usually on port 27000 or close to that.
Wouldn't there be some commandline utility from the FLEXnet package that you can use, e.g. to query the number of currently in-use licenses ? As long as it contacts the network daemon it can be used to check that the daemon is running, and then you can probably make a custom test wrapper around the command line tool, and generate the Hobbit status based on this.
