Hi, We're on ARS6.3 and MS SQL Server 2000
We have 3 ARS servers with a load-balancer, and a single DB server. We're logging our users (creating ARUSER.LOG)on each of the 3 servers. Each of the 3 aruser.log files contain lines which include things like: FLOAT GRANT WRITE (9 of 100 write) FLOAT RELEASE (8 of 100 write) Meaning, I guess, that 9 of our 100 licences are currently consumed; then 8... Sometimes we get a line like: NO WRITE FREE ... when, presumably, all 100 licences have been taken. We merge this data from all 3 files and collect the data in an MS Access DB What's strange is that when we examine the number of licences consumed when we get the NO WRITE FREE message, it can exceed 100. E.g. the last line from Server A might say: (33 of 100 write) Server B .. (35 of 100 write) Server C .. (36 of 100 write) We're pretty sure that we *don't* get more licences than the number purchased, but wonder why the maths doesn't add up! Is ARUSER.LOG supposed to be an exact trace of licence checkout/checkin, or is it just a snapshot of some description? Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Can send more details off-list if anyone thinks they can help. Thanks.
