Reviewing User Audit Information

How to:

The User Audit command evaluates the repository license usage for Total Users, Portal Users, and Designer/InfoAssist Users. The command produces a License Analysis report that identifies the total number of licenses by license type, the number of licenses in use by license type, and analyzes license assignments by Group and by User.

You can also run the User Audit utility (license_audit.bat) from your local WebFOCUS installation directory, which is available in the following location.

For Windows: drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS82\utilities\mr

For UNIX or Linux: install_directory/ibi/WebFOCUS82/utilities/mr

in the standard installation, or

For Windows : drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS_WFI\WebFOCUS\utilities\mr

For UNIX or Linux: install_directory/ibi/WebFOCUS_WFI/WebFOCUS/utilities/mr

in the integrated installation.

The utility generates the License Analysis report and transfers it to the auditUserCounts.htm file, in the same directory.

The License Analysis report contains the following information:
