Hello,
what did happen in the last days is very very strange.
I am trying to render an animation, 4 different cameras.
I am using the daily build version 1.4, i tried to use DR but the result was a series of band on my render, maybe because my scene is not very clean, some missed texture etc.
Than I tried  to render different camera on each machine, with my subscription I have got 3 render slave.
And this is the incredible part, If I am sitting at the desk looking at the machine through VNC, is like a remote desk application, everything looks like is working properly.
But if I am not at the desk and I am not looking a the rendering process, in fact I was not here during 3 days, my renders process stopped on the last frame I saw in the last hour before i left the office.
It looks like corona know your are looking at him,I know this is a nonsense.
Last frame take 86 hours, when I look at the render windows Corona saved the render and start processing the next frame, this in unbelievable.
The average frame time on my machine is 25 minutes.
Is it this relate to my kind of subscription?
Thank you.

no, it does not sound like licensing issue. Can you post the DR and max logs from the problematic node?

===== Warning(33) =====
System is running low on RAM. You may experience excessive parsing times and/or crashes.
You will probably have to simplify the scene.

 This is the message I get.


I realized that explorer was using more than half of the RAM. Could be this the problem?

yes, that is definitely a probable cause for this
