Restart License Servers After an Outage
If the license server goes down, and then resumes operation, or if you
move, add or delete license files, you should restart the license server.
Restarting the license server ensures that CC-SG is synchronized with
the most current information.
Note: A Windows license server will synchronize automatically after an
outage. A Linux license server will synchronize after a 2-hour timeout,
but restarting it will synchronize it immediately after an outage.
To restart a license server:
Run the command lmdown for graceful shutdown of the license server.
