lsusage displays a summary of application usage, providing information on license transactions contained in the License Manager usage file.
Use lsusage in the following format:
lsusage [options]
One or more of the following options must be specified:
Option | Description |
---|---|
-l log-file |
Selects the License Manager log file to display. Must be specified. If this is the only option, the summary will be displayed on the screen. |
-c CSV-format-file |
Specifies the name of an output file to which the output will be written in Comma-Separated Values (CSV) format. This CSV file can be used with Microsoft Access to produce graphical reports. For further details we suggest you to read through Creating License Manager Use Reports. |
-f
feature1[,version1]: |
Specifies feature(s) and version(s) to be included in the output. Note that version is optional. If this option is not supplied, the output will contain all features and versions in the log file. |
-m start-month |
Specifies the first month (1-12) of the time period to be included in the output. If not specified, then the -a option is ignored and January 1 is assumed for the start month and start day. |
-a start-day |
Specifies the first day (1-31) of the month to be included in the output. For example, if you have specified March as the start month, specifying a start day of 1 means that the output will be for a time period beginning with March 1. If not included, and the -m option is included, a start day of 1 is assumed. |
-y start-year |
Specifies the first year of the time period to be included in the output. Use four digits to specify the year. If not included, then -m and -a are ignored and the output begins with the first data in the file. |
-M end-month |
Specifies the last month (1-12) of the time period to be included in the output. If not specified, then the -A option is ignored and the default value of December 31 is assumed. |
-A end-day |
Specifies the last day (1-31) of the month to be included in the output. If not included, and the -M option is included, an end day of 31 is assumed. |
-Y end-year |
Specifies the last year of the time period to be included in the output. Use four digits to specify the year. If not included, then -M and -A are ignored, and the output ends with the last data in the log file. |

Warning: lsusage will not display license transactions that are encrypted to level 3 and 4. For information on encrypted log file transactions, see Setting Usage Logging.
If the Sentinel RMS log file contains characters that
are not 7-bit ASCII (for example, if a user name contains multi-byte characters
such as Japanese Kanji
characters), those characters will not be viewable when looking directly
at the log file. However, if you use the lsusage -c
option to create CSV-format
output from the log file, you will be able to view the multi-byte
characters if you view the CSV-format
file with an appropriate text editor on an operating system that displays
the multi-byte language. Also, when anonymous usage logging option is enabled, that multi byte user and host names will be logged anonymously.
You can also create Microsoft Access reports
from the CSV-format file that can be viewed on a computer using the appropriate
multi-byte operating system. (For information on creating reports from
log file CSV-format output, see Creating
License Manager Use Reports)
