Flexlm TIMEOUTALL in SW2008

In SW2007, I set up a FLEXLM options file that included a TIMEOUTALL line to release inactive licenses. Since the upgrade to 2008, I've noticed an increase in license usage, and found that licenses are not being revoked for inactivity. I see the line in the log that says the inactivity timeout is set to 900 seconds, but I've left SolidWorks idle while I went to a 2 hour meeting and the license manager says I still have a license.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Scott

Hi Scott,

I have running SNL 2008SP0, but the clients are working with SWX2007.

I get licenses back if the timeout is exceeded. You will see this on the (INACTIVE) entry behind the IN operation.

  Thanks for the feedback. I saw the inactivity entry in the log with 2007, but in 2008 it doesn't show up at all. It seems like SolidWorks tells the license manager that it is active all the time.

    Hi Scott,
    
    I doublecheck this and I saw the same like you. The license will not released if the software is not used.
    
    I reported this and got SPR403367.
    You can refer to this SPR to increase bug fixing speed.
