Description

This option allows to borrow a license feature until a given date or time. Borrowing allows you to use a floating license even if disconnected from the floating license server.

You need to specify the feature name and the date until you want to borrow the feature. If the feature you want to borrow is a feature belonging to the tool where you use this option, then you do not need to specify the version of the feature (because the tool knows the version). However, if you want to borrow any feature, you need to specify as well the feature version of it.

You can check the status of currently borrowed features in the tool about box.

Note: You only can borrow features, if you have a floating license and if your floating license is enabled for borrowing. See as well the provided FLEXlm documentation about details on borrowing.
Example

-LicBorrowHI100100;3.000:12-Mar-2005:18:25
