Our company have bought 15 licenses of Corona Renderer - FairSaaS - 1 WS + 3 NODES (12 months).
We've installed Corona Licensing server in our network.
We are just testing how Corona Licensing server works.

As I understand:
1. Corona Licensing server activates for 30 days any client with Corona Renderer which asking server for license.
2. There is only one way to see what clients are using the licenses. Such information is outputs in Corona Licensing server log.

The questions are:
1. Is it possible that client borrows the license from Corona Licensing server when Corona is used, and returns the license to Corona Licensing server when Corona is inactive? (the same behaviour like 3ds Max and Autodesk license server)
2. Is it possible to manually deactivate the license on some client to return the license to Corona Licensing server?

It's possible to close theme. Answers are:

There is no "license tracking" options.

To release license there are 2 options:
1) simply close 3ds Max
2) press the "remove license" button in the System settings

(this question was also asked and answered through our support portal)

Just a note: currently there is no "license tracking" possible, for example to check which specific computers are using the licenses, or what is the total amount of used vs available licenses, but we are looking into this. Our goal is to have some kind of license tracking/management utility in the near future, similar to what V-Ray is offering.
