Title: I have one questions about network license of iToosoftware.
Post by: cc8boy on February 02, 2016, 08:49:49 AM
Hello iToosoft,
About the timing of starting the software.
For example, the computers of Mr A and Mr B are in the same LAN. But they have only one network license.
Mr A is using the iToosoftware(He is grabbing the license). Mr B start the iToosoftware in his computer without telling Mr A.

A.    Mr A will be refuced to edit the iToo objects immediately when Mr B start the iToosoftware.
B.    Mr A can continue editing. Mr B must wait until Mr A close his 3DSMAX.

Which situation will happen ? If situation A happen, can he save the scene immediately without any problem ? I must make sure about these question.

I hope you may answer me soon.

Hi,

It'll behave like mentioned in the B option. As there will be no available license (it'll be already in use), the other user will get warning message and if he needs to work with our plug-in(s), he have to wait until the license will be "returned" to the licensing server.

The license handling process is fully automatic - the license is sent when needed and released to the "free & available" status when not in use - that happens shortly after closing the 3ds Max (within seconds) / scene with Forest objects (within minutes).

Best regards,
