Borrowed licenses are automatically returned to the license server at the end of the day you specify. You can return licenses early.

You can further manage borrowing by setting parameters in an options file. You can specify the following:

• The maximum number of licenses that can be borrowed from your network at one time.
• The maximum borrowing period. If you don't specify this parameter in the options file, the default is six months or the subscription term, whichever is shorter.
• The users who are eligible to borrow a product license.
