Using my network license on another network

Post by adrencg » 30 Jul 2014, 14:57

I have a network license that's distributed by my main workstation, but I want to take one of my render nodes to a client's office and work there. Will I have to re-install Softimage on that node and change the license method to standalone -- or can I just set that in the setenv.bat file before removing from the network? Will anything weird happen when I try to open Softimage once I'm at the new location?

I think you'd have to look at the process Autodesk calls License Borrowing. ;)
Stay safe, sane & healthy!

I was expecting that to not work, but it worked. Thanks.
