Tracking VRay license usage

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max General
1

Is the VRay license server capable of producing a log tracking license usage … or it is already and I am not aware of the log save path?

I am trying to capture VRay usage in our environment to quantify if we are good with the amount of licenses we’re at … or if we need to purchase more down the road.

The “localhost:30304/getstatus” query is a great way to check in realtime. However, I need to get a historical record of how close we are coming to our license limit.

Thanks for any feedback provided.

Can anybody confirm if its possible to historically track license usage for V-Ray … possibly via a log output through the V-Ray license server??

At this time, the server does not keep a log file; however you can probably write a simple utility to periodically check the license server web page.

Has anyone written a utility to do this? We need to do the exact same thing!
