floating license showing no check out

we successfully connect to the license server and checkout out licenses

however there is no checkouts are showing up in the logs.

[root@finnegan /home/admin]# ps -ef | grep altera

flexlm 869 868 0 10:01:40 ? 0:01 alterad -T finnegan 9.5 3 -c /home/flexlm/altera/SOL10/license.dat -p --lmgrd_s

flexlm 868 1 0 10:01:40 pts/1 0:01 /home/flexlm/bin/v9.50/lmgrd -2 -p -c /home/flexlm/altera/SOL10/license.dat -l

Can any one help? we just move this altera flexlm licensing server to Solaris 10.

Is there any other way to check the checkouts?

Thanks a lot for helping in advance

Best regards

Jenny

    Thanks for the information,

    We increase the timestamp value seems to fixed the pb

    find:lmgrd [ -app ] [ -c license_file ] [ -t timeout_interval ] [ -l logfile ]

    [ -s timestamp_interval ] [ -2 -p ] [ -v ] [ -x lmdown ] [ -x lmremove ]

    Hi,

    If you are compiling for a device which is only supported in Altera's subscription version you should see a check out in the log when you run the fitter. You might not see a checkout event for synth only, or if you are compiling for a Web edition supported device.

    The other method of checking status is to run: lmutit lmstat -a -c port@server

    this will return the current status of the server.

    I am running a server on solaris 9, and I am seeing all checkouts, however I am creating a log by piping the output of lmgrd to a file >& rather than with the -l option
