Aggregate view of multiple license daemons

We have an environment were we have three license servers all with a different mix of licenses from the same vendor. What is the best way to setup LM so that we can generate reports against individual license servers OR against all the license servers? For example, ServerA has 5 licenses of feature XYZ, ServerB has 3 licenses of XYZ and ServerC has 20 licenses of XYZ. We would like to be able to see the utilization of licenses at the server level as well as an overall utilization at the company level.

I would recommend setting up

I would recommend setting up each license server with its own tag (ie VENDOR_LAN & VENDOR_WAN, etc).  This will give you the ability to run separate reports easily.  As for doing the aggregate view, that's really easy now as of 2009.08.  In the tag filter for any of the historical reports, you would just put in both tags separated by a space (see below for screenshot).  All of the filters now support this so you can really pinpoint each report down to what you really want to see.  If you have further questions, please let us know.

Sorry to Hijack this thread but is that screen for version 2008.09 or a customized layout?  The reason why I ask is because my Checkout History Statistics screen doesn't have the links to the usage graphs.
