server side flexlm test

Anna, and All actual here how I modified your script.

Basicly I put a do loop around Anna version that parses a config file:
params.lm.
This is a list we use for an existing  flexlm  tracker.

With entries that look like:
 

'MATLAB_7.0_mysys 1700 at mysys'


Ok I've not the time to explain in detail but here are the key point
${LMSTATDIR}/lmstat -a  -c $LIC
Where $LIC is the last field on the line

I actually use the first field as $MACHINE
and parse out the licencesname from $MACHINE into TEST
TEST is very important as this sets the column name which MUST match the 
graph!

The very bad part of my scheme is if I want graphs I need
for  each license  type MATLAB Maple LSF etc add/add-on  3 lines

trends="................LSF=
GRAPHS="..............LSF"
NCV_LSF="*:GAUGE"

Since my user are used to seeing  a table formated like:

MATLAB_7.0_mysys  today# thisweeks# lastweek# .....

I set up pseudo hosts like:
0.0.0.0 MATLAB_7.0_mysys # noconn TRENDS=:*,MATLAB:MATLAB|MATLAB1


So the hobbit page looks like:
                                  MATLAB   info   trends

MATLAB_7.0_mysys   dot     dot  dot



You got to make your graphs defs too (MATLAB MATLAB1)
