What is a more efficient way to find peak license usage on JAZZ products
One answer
I have used repotools-jts -listIssuedFloatingLicenses on a periodic basis to tabulate how many liceneses are "in hand" at any given time. A perl script executes the repotools-jts and parses the output into files like:
Time,Analyst-Floating,Contributor-Floating,Developer for IBM Enterprise Platforms-Floating,Developer-Floating,Quality Professional-Floating,Stakeholder-Floating
1517807533,0,0,1,2,0,0
1517808430,0,0,1,2,0,0
1517809331,0,0,1,2,0,0
1517810230,0,0,0,2,0,0
1517811136,0,0,0,2,0,0
1517812033,0,0,0,1,0,0
1517812933,0,0,0,0,0,0
1517813831,0,0,0,1,0,0
1517814732,0,0,0,1,0,0
1517815632,0,0,0,1,0,0
1517816531,0,0,0,1,0,0
1517817431,0,0,0,2,0,0
1517818331,0,0,0,3,1,0
1517819232,0,0,0,3,0,0
Using data like this over months, I can show for almost any time period as well as a running weekly average graph by shifting forward older time stamps into 'this week' I then use R to draw nice pics and post on a web page.
I'm not sure if I can share details as based on my employment, it's not my Intellectual Property :-(
