Configuring the License Server

level, use the -lfe license server startup option and specify a number from 1 to 4,
where:
Note For a specific license code, your application vendor can specify a particular
encryption level; all entries for that license code will be encrypted to that
level regardless of your encryption level settings. You may only set the
encryption level of transaction records for license codes for which your
vendor has allowed user-defined encryption.
For information on lsusage, see “lsusage - Display the SentinelLM Usage Log
File” on page 89 of “Chapter 5 - Administrator Commands.”
Setting Error Logging
The license server can log unexpected conditions to a log file. The name of the
error log file is specified by the license server -f startup option.
Normally error logging is disabled. If you are having a problem running or con-
figuring the license server you may want to temporarily enable error logging.
Then you will be able to capture all error messages in the log file.
Recommended setting: By default, error logging is disabled. We recommend you
leave it disabled.
Encryption
Level
Description
1 No encryption.
2 No encryption. Transaction data will be readable, but tampering with or
deleting an entry will be detected by lsusage. This is the default encryp-
tion level if you do not specify one (and if your vendor has not set an
encryption level for your license codes).
3 Encrypt usage only. Transaction data will be readable except for license
usage data. Such entries will not be displayed by lsusage.
4 Encrypt entire record. All transaction data for the license code will be
encrypted. Such entries will not be displayed by lsusage.
