Teamcenter: Current users logged in

[uiketekaes]

Hi,

with this option I can view current users logged in Teamcenter, with his Node name, login, and more info...

There is an option for export this information to a file ??
There is an option for export, for example, every hour that info to a file ??

I need that info to make a database and do some stuff with it. Its impossible to take that data manually!!

Thanks a lot guys!!

You will actually see the desired information if you check the license status.
I have a bat-file which i run from time to time, to check the status.


The content of that bat file is as follows. :

REM
C:
cd C:\siemens\NX7.5\UGFLEXLM
REM
lmutil lmstat -c 28000"licenseservername" -a > c:\temp\licences-in-use.txt
REM
TIMEOUT 1
REM
Notepad c:\temp\licences-in-use.txt
REM
Del c:\temp\licences-in-use.txt

Where in my case the third line sets the current directory to where the flexlm is installed.
and "licenseservername" is the name of the server which runs the flexlm service.

Does that work for TeamCenter licenses or just NX ones?

TeamCenter being a web interface has no mechanism, that I am aware of, for checking license useage against a FlexLM process.
We have that same issue with Windchill. Windchill license logging is done by Tomcat, not FlexLM, and theer is no license check at login time. Maybe Siemens has again done something better than PTC.

It definitely works for the "integration NX-TC" *. Teamcenter and NX is using the same license deamon and license file since a few releases back. (Since NX5 i think.) * The names of the Teamcenter licenses and what they actually do/control is a bit difficult to understand... but i can normally detect who is having a TC session up.

The 'integration NX-TC' license I can understand because it is needed by NX. Can you tell if someone not running NX has a TC session open?
I know with Windchill, there is no FlexLM check for a Windchill session.

Im only using a TC, without running NX.

I have some .bats too for checking online users using NX licenses. Tomorrow I will try Toost method

Thanks

Yes, i tried it now. As soon as i start a session, i use a "teamcenter_author" license. ( Running in 4-tier mode.)
