Title: a question about new job manager in 2015
Post by: bubble on November 3, 2015, 00:54

Hi,
Recently, we found that the new job manager in 2015 is differenet from those in old versions. Since it now adopts client-server strcuture, we want to know that if it is possible to install the license ONLY in the client, and submit a calculation to a remote server through the client (if we have many servers, this is important. For example, if one of the servers is stopping, we can choose another one instead and do not need to consider the location of the license)?
Thank you for your reply.

No, the Job Manager is not related to licenses at all.

The license location should always, ideally, be independent of where you run ATK. Just try to make sure you have a network setup such that all machines that run ATK are able to "see" the license server.
