| How can I graph ClearCase (and Multisite) License usage with FlexLM? |
|
With recent changes in ClearCase Licensing to FlexLM I am often asked how to modify the well-known CC_GRAPH_LIC tool provided by ABS (that worked with clearlicense) to work with FlexLM. So we took the time to make the changes available. You can use the CC_FLEX_GRAPH_LIC.pl script which will Graphically Track and display the ClearCase license usage for a day or series of days (up to 120 days). This is similar to the CC_GRAPH_LIC.pl script that was origionally designed to use the output from clearlicense command. CC_FLEX_GRAPH_LIC.pl just uses te various FlexLM command set to gather the data. README for CC_FLEX_GRAPH_LIC.pl or the SOURCE CODE.
You can use the script to track ClearCase Multisite and other Rational Tools as well by modifying the products line in the source code:
README: ABS ClearCase License trackerThis tool displays the past and current ClearCase license usage for your department. It has both static and dynamic graphs to depict the usage. Every portion of the graph is hot in that if you roll your mouse of a portion of the graph will display detailed information about that location in the text field below the graph in a popup text window (or both) depending on the browser you are using.The graphs below are hot so the real graphs will act just like these. You may select two graphs at one time so it is easy to compare the data between two graphs. A color and icon legend is displayed between the two graphs. You can view daily graphs or the usage over the last 120 days. (user configurable). You also have the option to view "today's" graph either statically or dynamically (updating each minute). The data is displayed in 10 minute blocks for the daily graphs, but the data is polled each minute and the highest value is always displayed.
