Using Mobile Licenses

You can borrow mobile licenses by using GUI functionality provided by some products, or by using the lmutil licensing utility and lmborrow, one of its parameters.

Products generally provide the GUI functionality that allows you to borrow and return SySAM 2 licenses. See your product’s documentation to determine if it has this functionality, and if so, how to use it.

Some products automatically borrow licenses whenever they are used, so first check whether licenses are already borrowed on the machine:
