    3.$ SHOW LICENSE/OUTPUT=SYS$LOGIN:ACTIVE_LICENSES_OCT30.DAT

      The SHOW LICENSE command in this example writes all the active
      licenses to the file named SYS$LOGIN:ACTIVE_LICENSES_OCT30.DAT.

      about the product PERSONAL, as well as the name RANCE attached
      to the product license (known as the RESERVE list).

      TEST04     DEC           0  D     0      0.0  (none)      25-AUG-2015

      In these examples, the SHOW LICENSE command uses the /TERM,
      /RELEASE, /SINCE and /BEFORE qualifiers.

    6.$ SHOW LICENSE/UNIT_REQUIREMENTS
      VMS/LMF Charge Information for node PICCHU
      This is a VAX 6000-420, hardware model type 160

      Type: A, Units Required: 93      (VMS Capacity)
      Type: B, * Not Permitted *       (VMS Server)

      Type: H, * Not Permitted *       (Alpha Layered Products)
      Type: I, Units Required: 1200    (Layered Products)

      In this example, the /UNIT_REQUIREMENTS qualifier displays
      information in the License Unit Requirement Table (LURT).

    7.$ SHOW LICENSE/WARNING_INTERVAL=8000 test0%
      Active licenses on node PICCHU:

      --- Product ID ----  ---- Rating ----- -- Version --

      %SHOW-I-TERMIMM, 3 licenses will terminate in 8000 days

      The /WARNING_INTERVAL qualifier in this example displays three
      licenses that will terminate in 8000 days.

    8.$ SHOW LICENSE/USAGE/FULL DECWRITE-USER

      View of loaded licenses from node SLTG24   29-DEC-2001 13:36:22.23

      ACTIVITY license DECWRITE-USER usage information:
      Pid        Process Name      Units   Username        Node
      416000E6   MACAHAY             100   MACAHAY         SLTG24
      416000E7   MACAHIGH            100   MACAHIGH        SLTG24
      416000E8   ALICE               100   ALICE           SLTG24
      416000E9   MORGEN              100   MORGEN          SLTG24
      416000F1   ANGEL               100   ANGEL           SLTG24
      416000F2   ANGEL_1             100   ANGEL           SLTG24
      Units loaded: 2000    Units allocated: 600    Units available: 1400

      The SHOW LICENSE command in this example lists the current
      users of the activity license for the product DECwrite. For
      each instance of use of the product, the process identification
      (PID), process name, node, and user name are identified. The
      units column shows the number of units allocated for each
      particular invocation of the product. The last line displays
      the units loaded when the LICENSE LOAD command was given, the
      total number of units currently allocated, and the total of
      unused (available for others to use) units.

    9.$ SHOW LICENSE/USAGE/FULL TEST_PER

      View of loaded licenses from node: SLTG24  30-DEC-2001 15:45:59

      PERSONAL USE license DEC TEST_PER usage information:
      Units   Reserved for:
        100   UNCLE
        100   AUNT
        100   NEPHEW
        100   NIECE
      Units loaded: 600    Units reserved: 400    Units available: 200

      This example shows a personal use license. The DEC TEST_PER
      product has enough units for six reservations with 100 units
      for each reservation. The license database (LDB) only has
      a total of four names in the reserve list attached to this
      product. If the license administrator (usually the system
      manager) wants to take full advantage of this license and adds
      2 more names to the reserve list, he should use the following
      commands to update the product information:

        $ LICENSE MODIFY TEST_PER/RESERVE=(NAME, ANOTHER_NAME)/ADD
        $ LICENSE UNLOAD TEST_PER
        $ LICENSE LOAD TEST_PER

      If this product is used in a cluster environment, you may use
      the SYSMAN utility to unload and load the license.

    10.$ SHOW LICENSE/USAGE/FULL TEST_CAP

       View of loaded licenses from node: SLTG24  30-DEC-2001 15:45:59

       Availability license DEC TEST_CAP usage information:
       Units   Node
          10   SLTG24
          10   SLTG43
         600   TORN8O
         600   LTNUP
       Units loaded: 620    Units allocated: 1220    Units available: ***

      In this example, the number of units allocated appears to be
      greater than the total units loaded and the units available
      value is three asterisks (***).

      When you see three asterisks (***)  as the number of units
      available, it is generally not a cause for alarm. This
      situation might arise when the license database (LDB) has
      been updated on disk, but the new information has not been
      propagated to the license database in memory on all nodes in
      the cluster. This node, SLTG24, happens to be one of the nodes
      that has not received the latest LDB information.

      To update the information in the license database in memory for
      the TEST_CAP product, enter the following commands:

        $ LICENSE UNLOAD TEST_CAP
        $ LICENSE LOAD TEST_CAP

      The next time you issue the SHOW LICENSE/USAGE command the
      three asterisks (***)  in display should disappear. If,
      however, you are using multiple LDB files in a cluster, you
      should read the section on the license database in the OpenVMS
      License Management Utility Manual.

    11.$ SHOW LICENSE/UNIT_REQUIREMENT/CLUSTER

       VMS/LMF Cluster License Unit Requirements Information 24-DEC-2001
         14:05:51.65

       Node        A     B     C     D     E     F     G     H     I

       Type: C, * Not Permitted *       (VMS Concurrent User)
       Type: D, Units Required: 300     (VMS Workstation)
       Type: E, Units Required: 750     (System Integrated Products)
       Type: F, Units Required: 2430    (Layered Products)
       Type: G, * Not Permitted *       (VMS Reserved)
       Type: H, * Not Permitted *       (Alpha Layered Products)
       Type: I, Units Required: 2430    (Layered Products)

      In this example, the display shows how many license units are
      required for each license type (A, B, etc.) on each node in the
      cluster. If a row of three asterisks (***)  is displayed for a
      node, it means that the node is in the process of booting.
