Anna, and All actual here how I modified your script.

Basicly I put a do loop around Anna version that parses a config file: params.lm. This is a list we use for an existing flexlm tracker.

With entries that look like:

'MATLAB_7.0_mysys 1700 at mysys'

Ok I've not the time to explain in detail but here are the key point ${LMSTATDIR}/lmstat -a -c $LIC Where $LIC is the last field on the line

I actually use the first field as $MACHINE and parse out the licencesname from $MACHINE into TEST TEST is very important as this sets the column name which MUST match the graph!

The very bad part of my scheme is if I want graphs I need for each license type MATLAB Maple LSF etc add/add-on 3 lines

trends="................LSF= GRAPHS="..............LSF" NCV_LSF="*:GAUGE"

Since my user are used to seeing a table formated like:

MATLAB_7.0_mysys today# thisweeks# lastweek# .....

I set up pseudo hosts like: 0.0.0.0 MATLAB_7.0_mysys # noconn TRENDS=:*,MATLAB:MATLAB|MATLAB1

So the hobbit page looks like: MATLAB info trends

MATLAB_7.0_mysys dot dot dot

You got to make your graphs defs too (MATLAB MATLAB1)

#!/usr/bin/bash

This file is to be installed on each client that is to be

monitored for Flex License Manager.

The link above says it all, but here is a quick install:

Find the directory where the program lmstat is. Change the

variable LMSTATDIR below to that directory. That is the only

thing a user needs to change in this script. Copy this

script to ~hobbit/client/ext/

and make it executable for Hobbit.

For testing and verifying: Run the script in a shell and

check that the output is in /tmp/lic.txt

In the file:

~hobbit/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg

Add the following section:

[flexlminfo]

ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg

CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/flexlm

INTERVAL 5m

This is all that needs to be done on the client side.

The license manager has a component that is

used to deliver output to a file

( ${LMSTATDIR}/lmstat -a -c $LIC ) > /tmp/flexlm.txt$$

The output from the license manager is

searched for lines that count actual license

usage. The result is delivered in /tmp/lic.txt file.

( #echo $TEST >/tmp/lic.txt$$ echo $L >/tmp/lic.txt$$ echo "" >>/tmp/lic.txt$$ $EGREP "${LICENSEGREP}" |
$SED 's/://' |
$AWK '{printf "M%.19s : %d \n %.19s : %d \n", $3, $6, $3, $11 }' #$AWK '{printf "%.19s : %d \n", $3, $11 }' )< /tmp/flexlm.txt$$ >> /tmp/lic.txt$$

The actual state of the license manager is checked

and prepared as part of report to Hobbit monitor.

UPTEST=cat /tmp/flexlm.txt$$ | $EGREP ".*: UP.*$v.*" #UPTEST=cat /tmp/flexlm.txt | $EGREP ".*MLM: UP.*$" #LOOK OUT the below LICSERVTEST IS a single line! LICSERVTEST=cat /tmp/flexlm.txt$$ | $EGREP ".*license server UP.*$" | $SED 's/://' | $AWK '{printf "%s\n", $1 }'

if [ -n "$BB" ]; then

if [ -n "$UPTEST" ]; then
    SSTATUS="Licenses OK"
    COLOUR="green"
    FLEXLMSTATE=`cat /tmp/lic.txt$$`
    if [ -n "$LICSERVTEST" ]; then
        SSTATUS="Licenses on $LICSERVTEST OK"
    fi
else
    SSTATUS="DOWN"
    COLOUR="red"
    FLEXLMSTATE=`cat /tmp/flexlm.txt$$`
fi

Finally, the gathered information is sent to the Hobbit Monitor.
