Hello

we have 7 SW17 licenses managed by SW license server.

Sometimes, however, someone releases a session, but no one can take it and the person who released the session is still officially using it.

So my question is how can I end at the server level to this reserved session. without firing my other colleagues of course.

Thank you for your answers

Hello in this case I try to stop the license server and restart

This does not impact other users, because when you use SolidWorks it does not ask for the key every 2

Hello

Not tested but see http://solidworks.helpmax.net/fr/administration-des-licences/administrer-des-licences-avec-le-gestionnaire-de-licences-solidnetwork/administration-des-licences-solidnetwork/recuperer-des-licences-client/.

Otherwise there is the complete ICI license server doc.

Kind regards

Hello, and thank you for your answers

The solution to restart the license server seems good to me if it doesn't impact other users. but I would need a little tutorial or a MO.

Concerning your answer D.ROGER it is also attractive, but a priori, you have to go through the DOS (I'm old enough to know, that's fine) But I can't find the file in question. In addition, you have to close the licenses individually by software and add-ons, and that may be a lot.

Thank you for your support

Hello

I would like to set up the solution to restart the license server.

Is it possible to place an order like Net Stop "name of the service"?

If YES, what is the name of the PDM license service?

llemaitre_1 did you get the little tutorial?

Thank you in advance.
