Hi all, I updated my Corona to version 13 but having difficulties getting it to fully initiate a rendering. Everything launches on the render nodes fine, I do a test and make sure that it can see a license. I close out and launch the DrServer and run my job from my main machine but I am met with "slave 3ds max ended render" shortly after Received sampling focus mask and the job just renders locally with the slave status changing to waiting for render to start. Sometimes the DrServer closes once I kill the rendering as well which I find odd.

love solving my own problems. Not only do you need to make sure all your licenses are correct, but you need to be signed into your Chaos account as well. Solved

Glad to hear you solved it - and I also wanted to say thank you for coming back and sharing what the solution was, as this can be a great help to others, and let's face it, it's pretty easy to not take the time to come back and report on the fix because you've just had to spend time figuring it all out and want to get back on with the important things like rendering and working on the project. So, big thanks!

Hi,

Haven't any of the machines (including master) received a notification for missing/non-engaged licenses?
We have an internal report for improving the notifications with DR, and I want to make sure that this is one of the cases which are covered in the improvements.
