Licence server install

[Macker]

Hey guys,

Hopefully an easy question to answer but couldn't see it in the help docs (unless I missed it)...

We've recently purchased VRay Next and are looking at installing it today. Do I need to make sure every workstation/node has the licence server installed, or do I only do this on one machine (as per forest pro/railclone licence server) that can be seen by all other machines?

Not really - you can set up 1 or 2 machines for license servers and get licenses from there - for example, if you have a license server with dongles - you can just use the same computer. It's a neater setup than having the license server on each machine and generates less network overhead.
You can see some example setups here - https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/...License+Server

Ahhh, excellent. My fault as I hadn't seen that page.

Thank you!
