LMDOWN(1)

     NAME
          lmdown - graceful shutdown of all license daemons

     SYNOPSIS
          lmdown [ -c license_file ] [ -q ]

     DESCRIPTION
          lmdown sends a message to every license daemon asking it to
          shut down.  The license damons write out their last messages
          to the log file, close the file, and exit.  All licenses
          which have been given out by those daemons will rescinded,
          so that the next time a client program goes to verify his
          license, it will not be valid.  NOTE: In FLEXlm v2.4 and
          later, lmdown is either a link or a copy of the lmutil
          program.  (On VMS, lmdown is still a separate program).

     OPTIONS
          -c license_file
                    Use the specified license_file.  If this switch is
                    not specified, lmdown looks for the environment
                    variable LM_LICENSE_FILE.  If that environment
                    variable is not set, lmdown looks for the file
                    /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat.

          -q        Quiet mode.  If this switch is not specified,
                    lmdown asks for confirmation before asking the
                    license daemons to shut down.  If this switch is
                    specified, lmdown will not ask for confirmation.
