GNS
OpenLM Platform monitors licenses for software from GNS (Gesellschaft für numerische Simulation) through OpenLM Broker. Broker reads the product names from your GNS license file, then runs the GNS licstat.exe utility for each product to read its license total, usage, and expiration date. This page lists the prerequisites. To get the configuration steps, contact OpenLM Support.
