OMG...The wait is killing me!

LICENSE IS NOT FLOATING
License is node-locked – but it is rehostable. However, this process is not automatic.

How does the rehosting work?

Is it possible to switch between host at work/home?

[Ondra]

No, it is meant only for cases such as buying new computer, not to be used on daily basis

[arczi]

It's pity that box version is rather 'install fixed' than 'node fixed'. If you always need an internet connection during new install then it's not unconditionally forever purchase. And the other part is not being able to connect from 2 places. That's tradicional model from almost very company atm. even the bigger ones like adobe, autodesk, maxon.

So i guess the only reasonable option is to take fairsaas.
the question is how often do you need to be connected to the internet for the license validation?
and what exactly means once in few days- is it possible in some cases to have more than 'few days' without the internet, more like weeks?

We have not finalized these the details yet, so specific number is not known yet

Hi there.

This question is regarding the box license, imagin I have 1 box license, hence 1 GUI license, 3 render nodes, of course my main workstation will be my GUI license and it will be used as a node, but my renderfarm is in another place (in my case I work from home, but I have a small office in other place where I have the renderfarm) will there be any problem to distribute my license between those nodes in another place and my main workstation? Hope not... cheers!

[Ondra]

what do you mean by "distribute license"? If you mean whether you can use the render node licenses at a different place, then answer is yes

[juang3d]

Yes, that is what I meant, to be able to license my nodes at the render farm and license my workstation in my home.

Thanks!

Cheers.

[Ondra]

ok, in that case it is possible. The licences are node-locked, but the nodes can be located wherever you want them.

I'm using dailies and currently my About-info says "Valid until: 2015-02-15." Is this the case and if so, should the switch to commercial version not go as smoothly as planned, will you give us extended time for the dailies? I'm in a middle of a shitstorm of projects that are very tightly scheduled, very relevant to my future business with these specific clients. I need to work through this weekend and next week non-stop and rely on tens of liters of coffee so not having Corona working as expected, even for a day, could be a disaster.

So can I please get an extension to the beta/daily system for at least a week from this day on so I can have peace of mind and then activate my SAAS license as soon as I have a day off, to avoid any possibility of things not working as supposed to. I would of course pay for the SAAS in advance, in fact just tell me who to send money right now and I'll be on it right this minute - just renew my daily build expiration date to at least a week onwards :D

I hope you find the time to answer/give more info on our current situation with Corona, otherwise the coming days will prove to be both very exciting and disastrous for me :P

Thanks!

[Ondra]

it automatically extends, don't worry

Corona said that my db license has expired today but I manually re-registered using the old data and it works fine. Adam told me it may have happened because of firewall.

[vkiuru]

it automatically extends, don't worry

Good news, really appreciate the fast reply!

[Juraj]

Heh, saved me from asking the same question :- ) Yeah, mine is supposed to expire today.

My boss has promised me today -  that we are ready to buy 5 box licenses. it's very good price for us :) We are waiting for release:) Last 6 big projects were made with Alpha 7.2 .  No crashes, full speed, using render layers and masks, great stability and comfortable use - Vray is actually sleeping at out servers  :)
