## Example Playbook
|
||
|
||
* Manage Flexlm to provide Intel Fortran (without binaries) :
|
||
|
||
``` yaml
|
||
- hosts: intel-lm
|
||
roles:
|
||
- role: ipr-cnrs.flexlm
|
||
flexlm__licences:
|
||
- name: intel
|
||
description: 'flexlm Licence Manager for Matlab'
|
||
bin_path: '/opt/intel/bin'
|
||
lic_path: '/opt/matlab/etc/licence.lic' # need to be a file
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Manage Flexlm to provide Matlab Licence and vendor daemon binaries :
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
- hosts: matlab-lm
|
||
roles:
|
||
- role: ipr-cnrs.flexlm
|
||
flexlm__licences:
|
||
- name: matlab
|
||
description: 'flexlm Licence Manager for Matlab'
|
||
bin_path: '/opt/matlab/bin'
|
||
bin_src: '{{ inventory_dir + "/../resources/service/matlab-lm/bin/" }}'
|
||
lic_path: '/opt/matlab/etc/licence.lic' # need to be a file
|
||
lic_src: '{{ inventory_dir + "/../resources/host/matlab-lm.domain/etc/licence.lic" }}' # need to be a file
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
This role will :
|
||
* Copy the `lmgrd` and `lmutil` binaries to the client.
|
||
* Create a specific user to launch daemon.
|
||
* Set up a systemd service (flexlm-item.name). [Thanks to Kalebo instructions][kalebo instruction flexlm systemd].
|
||
* Copy vendor daemon binaries to the host if source is specified.
|
||
* Copy licence file to the host if source is specified.
|
||
* Create a symlink (/usr/tmp) to /tmp to avoid error.
|
||
|
||
The `lmgrd` and `lmutil` binaries comes from [Mathworks][mathworks download url] in version **flexlm__lmgrd_version**.
|
||
|
||
## Known Issues
|
||
|
||
* If a value of one licence change in **flexlm__licences** var, all services will be restarted.
|
||
|
||
## Development
|
||
|
||
This source code comes from our [Gogs instance][flexlm source] and the [Github repo][flexlm github] exist just to be able to send the role to Ansible Galaxy…
|
||
|
||
But feel free to send issue/PR anywhere :)
|
||
|
||
Thanks to this [hook][gogs to github hook], Github automatically got updates from our [Gogs instance][flexlm source] :)
