Hi
Can you please help me to understand How to use this?
I am new to this.

Hi Can you please help me to understand How to use this? I am new to this.

Run ./parse_lmgrd.py <your log file> and receive statistics on license usage as output.

The script was written for Python 2 however, which is no longer supported. You will have to update it to run correctly with modern Python 3.

Hi Grigory Rechistov,
I got a message under parse_lmgrd.py running.
Could you please check this error?
Thank you.

version: Python 2.6.6
Error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./parse_lmgrd.py", line 103, in
main()
File "./parse_lmgrd.py", line 95, in main
print "{:<32} {:>5}".format(f, outs[u][f])
ValueError: zero length field name in format

@hyunseokjo00 I do not have Python 2.6.6 available anywhere, so I cannot test it.

Reading this, it comes to my mind that explicit addition of indices into format specifiers should help.

Thy this for line 95:

print "{0:<32} {1:>5}".format(f, outs[u][f])

Alternatively, upgrade to Python 2.7 which should support the used format syntax.

Hi Grigory Rechistov,
I'm working on the Linux machine(Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.9).
Your new code works fine. : print "{0:<32} {1:>5}".format(f, outs[u][f])
Thank you so much.
Thanks

Hi Grigory Rechistov,
I got the following result.
I have an additional question. I wonder if 59 and 5 mean hours.
Thanks,

User hyunseokjo00 total checkouts:
feature1 59
feature2 5

I wonder if 59 and 5 mean hours.

This current form of the script counts only the number of "OUT" events. To deduce how long a feature has been checked out, the logic has to be changed to: 1) parse the timestamps; 2) match the "IN" and "OUT" events and deduce the time periods between them.
