Automatic logging reports

License Manager has two types of logs that are automatically created in the directory where License Manager is installed: the connections log and max usage log. The connections log is turned on by default. It can be turned off by selecting Options → Logs from the menu bar.

Connections log

The connections log keeps track of licenses passed out in the format below. A new log is created daily.

The file name has the format Connections_MonthDayYear.log.

The file format is:

"Time", "Checked Out", "IP Address", "WorkStation Name", "Group",
"Time", "Checked In", "IP Address", "WorkStation Name", "Group",
"Time", "Buried", "IP Address", "WorkStation Name", "Group",
"Time", "Recovered", "IP Address", "WorkStation Name", "Group",
"Time", "Timed Out", "IP Address", "WorkStation Name", "Group",

Checked Out

The license was passed out to a user.

Checked In

The license was returned by the user.

Buried

The BlueZone administrator kicked the license away from the user.

Recovered

The user reclaimed their license when License Manager is in initializing mode.

Timed Out

The server was running but did not receive a heartbeat from the user in 3 minutes.

Max usage log

The max usage log keeps track of the maximum number of BlueZone licenses passed out for the day.

The log is always called Max-Usage.log.

Everyday it appends a new line at the end of the file in the following format:

"Date", "FTP", "BlueZone", "3270", "5250", "All",
"Date", "FTP", "BlueZone", "3270", "5250", "All",
"Date", "FTP", "BlueZone", "3270", "5250", "All",
"Date", "FTP", "BlueZone", "3270", "5250", "All",

Note

The log is also written out if the License Manager is stopped.
