increasing the token checkout time

[Sharon_B_]

Dear Intel support,

I am running on a system with flexlm managed floating licenses for the C++ and C intel compilers. Two concurrent compiles (two tokens) are

possible. There's a time limit for checking out the tokens (~ 10 minutes). Sometimes, my compiles/links last longer than this time limit, so I waste time re-checking out the token and pushing through the Makefile to resume a compilation. Is there an environment variable or some other

technique for increasing the time I can have a token checked out?

thanks much,

Sharon

To configure the borrow duration:

lmutil lmborrow INTEL dd-mmm-yyyy:[time] <featurename>

Example:
lmutil lmborrow INTEL 06-Oct-2015 CCompL

The command above borrows a “featurename” called CCompL (Intel® C++ Compiler for Linux*) from the vendor INTEL until 6th Oct 2015 using the license file server.lic
