To set the maximum borrow period to less than 30 days, you can use the MAX_BORROW_HOURS key word in your options file. The format for this entry in the options file is below.
MAX_BORROW_HOURS feature[:keyword=value] num_hours
feature
- is the toolbox this borrow period applies to
keyword=value
- denotes the license feature this borrow period applies to. This is used when multiple licenses are in use.
num_hours
- is the number of hours in the new borrow period
For example, if you wanted set the maximum borrow period of Simulink to seven days, you would make the following entry in your options file:
MAX_BORROW_HOURS Simulink 168
