Setting up the Redundant License Server Pool
46
Chapter 3 - Setting up Redundant License Servers and License Balancing
are used to turn borrowing off on a specific license server for a particular license
code feature/version or all feature/versions.
Wrlftool (for Windows) or rlftool (for Windows or UNIX) is used to define the
borrowing threshold, the percentage of license tokens that, when consumed, will
trigger borrowing from another license server in the pool. For example, if a
license has 100 tokens (that is 100 concurrent users can use the license) and the
borrowing threshold is set to 90%, then when 10 license tokens are remaining on
any license server, that license server will borrow more tokens from another
license server in the pool. By changing the threshold, you can adjust the amount
of token borrowing that occurs to fine-tune network performance.

The following diagram gives an overview of how to initially set up a redundant
license server pool. For more information and for details on using the utilities
