Using flexlm log license from remote machine

We have several software packages (SolidWorks, Pro / ENGINEER, OrCAD, Minitab ...) that use FlexLM to manage network licenses.

I wrote a python program to poll the FlexLM daemons every few minutes with lmutil lmstat -a

.

However, this requires it to lmutil

be installed on the same computer as the python program.

Our FlexLM license daemons are on multiple servers, so does anyone know how to connect to a FlexLM server over a port to query its license usage status?

It seems the only way to get license usage over the network is to poll the flexlm daemon using:

lmutil lmstat -a -c <port-number@license-server>


I did not mark orenhg's answer as an answer as he advertises his product rather than answering the question.
