Example of Monitoring Software Usage Using a Command-Line Interface

The following example shows the software usage monitoring command as used from a command line, which starts the FrameMaker program using the command maker, and logs the application using the software usage monitoring swu_rpt command.

$ swu_rpt -p FrameMaker -I 29581 -s sherlock -c maker

In this example, two software usage report entries are created because the -c option was used (the -c option creates a begin and an end entry). The entries look like the following.
