InActive Client's License Reclaim

[npenneti]

Hi, Team

Is there an option in FnP to reclaim a concurrent license from an inactive FlexEnabled application like InstallShield or InstallAnywhere?

We would like to allow the application to stay inactive/idle for a max period of 24 hours before FnP reclaims the license.

What happens to the application after the license is reclaimed, is it closed automatically OR will it just stay open without having any license?

Thanks

Hi @npenneti This is possible using TIMEOUT in the options file, 

1. TIMEOUT is enabled in the options file of the License Server
2. lc_idle() is set to true by the client app. So it stops sending the heartbeats  to the Server (I am using Automatic Heartbeat)
3. Due to this, the license is reclaimed by the License Server once the TIMEOUT is reached
4. After reclaimed, how to handle the application on the client side is up to the developer joice.
