Specifications

Setting Group Reservations
SentinelLM System Administrator’s Guide 121
A group specification consists of:
• The name of the feature for which the reservation applies;
• The name of the group;
• The number of license tokens reserved for that group;
• And the login names of users or host IDs of computers that belong to that
group that will included or excluded from using the feature.
Group reservations should be entered according to the following format, with
one group per line:
feature_name[ ,ver ]:group_name:num_of_licenses:{ user_name | computer }
One or more of user_name and/or computer may be specified, but at least one
value must be specified in the last field. Version number is optional. If no version
number is specified, only the feature name is used.
The characters $ and ! have special meaning: $ indicates the computer name, and
! indicates a logical NOT.
For example, two users, one computer in group 1:
stars:group1:2:tom bryant $athena
One user, one computer in group 2:
stars:group2:1:doug $0x4f3c5801
One computer to be excluded from dots, two licenses to be reserved for jill:
dots:group1:2:!$0x592ae8b0 jill
In these examples, the two groups denoted as group1 are distinct because they
specify different feature names.
