> Unofficial Autodesk License Manager FLEXlm® Network Server container.
Usage
-----
> To use this container, simply treat it as if you were calling _lmgrd_ directly. The only caveat is that the container **ALWAYS** appends the `-z` flag when executing _lmgrd_ internally so to ensure it runs in the Foreground; otherwise, Docker believes the command has finished executing, and the container is immediately stopped.
A typical usage example, where a single license file, `adsk_server.lic`, is saved to a local directory. This directory's path, ``, is them mapped to the containers __/var/flexlm__ directory, and is finally referenced as if calling as _lmgrd_ directly: `-c /var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic`.
```bash
docker run -d --mac-address= \
-h \
-v :/var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic:ro \
-p 2080:2080 -p 27000-27009:27000-27009 \
haysclark/adlmflexnetserver \
-c /var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic
```
Alternatively, you can map a local folder containing multiple keys to the __/var/flexlm__ directory as well.
```bash
docker run -d --mac-address= \
-h \
-v :/var/flexlm \
-p 2080:2080 -p 27000-27009:27000-27009 \
haysclark/adlmflexnetserver \
-c /var/flexlm/license_file_1:/var/flexlm/license_file_2
```
### Logging
Docker's built-in logging functionality will collect the stdout/stderr generated by _lmgrd_.
```bash
docker logs
```
Thus it's recommended you do **NOT** use the `-l` flag to log to a file, doing so will cause your Docker logs to be empty. Additionally, avoid using the `-t` flag when using Docker's `run` command, enabling TTL support will cause extra line breaks in your Docker logs.
Troubleshooting
---------------
If you are unsure if the server is running correctly, you can log into the container.
```bash
docker exec -it /bin/bash
```
Once in bash run:
```bash
lmutil lmstat -a -c
```
