Summary:

You must be logged in as root to perform certain License Server operations on Unix platforms.  While using License Server on a UNIX platform, you must be logged in as root to:

• start the license server
• change distribution criteria (for redundant server)
• shut down the license server
• turn license server logging on and off
• turn token borrowing on and off
• add or delete license servers from the redundant license server pool

Only the user who started the license server can stop the license server. It is strongly recommended that only the root user administrate the license server.
