This iFix is applicable only for the LKAD which is installed separately on client machines. This standalone LKAD is used to configure clients to use single or multiple license servers. It also contains the Borrow tool which enables users to borrow licenses. In RLKS 814 iFix01, the size of the Borrow Tool has been reduced; thereby reducing the overall size of the LKAD installer.
