      <description>&lt;P&gt;ArcGIS Concurrent (desktop) License Server - 'ACT' extension name meaning&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi all and Happy New Year!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm looking at some usage stats for our ArcGIS Licensing Server, particularly extensions being used.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;LM version - 2019.2&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Concurrent use licenses for desktop ArcMap, Pro and; ArcMap and Pro desktop extensions.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;looking at the lmutil report for active usage, I'm seeing 'ACT' which I really have no idea of what it is.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;'ACT' doesn't show up as the name of anything via the license manager GUI, and 'ACT' doesn't show up at all in almost 18 months of lmgr logs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This is the lmutil report below. If anyone has any arcane knowledge of this ACT extension I'd be very grateful! Thanks in advance.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="markdown"&gt;Last Run Time: REDACTED

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It is an implementation artifact, not an actual desktop license or feature type.&amp;nbsp; You can think of it loosely as the license for the license manager itself, but even that isn't exactly correct.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
