This message is typical when your background program prints something
to standard output or standard error. The solution is redirecting
any output lmgrd produces to /dev/null.

If in your script you are using csh, try

/.....license.dat >& /dev/null &

If you are using sh, then the appropriate command is

/.....license.dat 2>1 /dev/null &

If you do not know, try putting in your script
/bin/echo $SHELL > /tmp/myshell
and then reading the file /tmp/myshell

Good luck
