OLicense

OLicense is one of the license managers supported by OpenLM. This guide explains how to configure OpenLM to interface with OLicense-Server in order to monitor license usage and obtain license statistics.

Broker method: OpenLM Broker is installed on the OLicense-Server machine, queries locally, and sends data to OpenLM Server.
