Title: Network license when off network
Post by: Theo Laich on December 01, 2020, 09:48:57 PM
Hello,

Is there a way to check-out a license for a certain amount of time, much like you can do with 3Ds Max here: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/network-license-administration/managing-network-licenses/license-borrowing/borrowing-license (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/network-license-administration/managing-network-licenses/license-borrowing/borrowing-license).

The server our license manager is on is going down for an OS upgrade and I'd like my team to be able to work while it's happening. I've had success with keeping a file open after the license is in use, but if someone has to open a new file or reboot, this is a problem. (I don't have access to another server to install the license manager on temporarily and our IS blocks peer-to-peer traffic which rules out using a workstation.)

Thanks much!

Hi
Unfortunately, our licensing system does not have this feature.
