unmatching vray licenses & Number of node

[fraggle]

Hello,
We do have one Workstation License and 5 Node licenses under Vray 3 new license policy.
Is it normal to get one free license and only 5 engaged when 5 node + the workstation is working?
5+1 = 6 not 5.
We often run into DR problem and we are wondering if it is not link to the fact that the license server count the license wrongly!
Thanks

A Workstation License includes one Interface License and one Render Node license + 5 additional Render Node licenses = 6 Render Nodes.
When the workstation is working it engages the Interface License, Render Node license is engaged only during rendering.
With the number of the licenses on your dongle you should be able to render with 6 machines and working on 1 workstation(without rendering).

However it would be a good idea to contact us at support@chaosgroup.com in order to verify the number of the licenses that you own.
