Thanks Gerry,
Yes, PROE_Flex3C is "Creo Elements/Pro Enterprise SE".
And your ptcstatus indicates that this one license is indeed reserved to
be used only by jsmith.
However, just because it is reserved for jsmith, it does not mean that
jsmith will necessarily get the license when Pro/E runs.
Re-run ptcsetup.bat on jsmith's PC and review which licenses it attempts
to use, and in which order.
(The ptcsetup command is in the same folder as ptcstatus.)
I assume that the configuration on that PC has PROE_FoundationAdv
specified as the first (or only) license.
Add PROE_Flex3C if it is not in the list, and then move it to the top of
the list of licenses.
If you wish to remove the reservation and allow anyone to use the
license?
On your license server, go to the folder where PTC's FlexNet is
installed.
The default location is C:\Program Files\flexnet.
In the sub-folder "licensing" edit the file "ptc.opt" with notepad or
other text editor.
This file normally has only 1 or 2 lines.
The first should begin with REPORTLOG.
The 2nd usually should begin with TIMEOUTALL
Any additional lines were added by someone.
Any lines that begin with "RESERVE" are literally reserving licenses for
users, PC's, or groups of users/PC's.
Simply delete these lines.
Save the file & exit.
Then restart the license service.
If you would like to know more about the above options file and
everything else about FlexNet (previously known as FlexLM) see the
user's guide:
