License Operation and Availability

You can run only one Autodesk vendor daemon (adskflex.exe) on your license server. This means that if you plan to serve licenses for multiple Autodesk products that were purchased individually (not as part of a suite or bundle) you must combine the license file contents for the products into one license file.

For example, if you plan to serve Maya licenses from a machine that is already serving 3ds max licenses, you must append the contents of your Maya license file to the 3ds max license file. See Example of a License File for Combined Autodesk Product Versions for more information.

Tip: You can use the following commands to query the status of your license server and determine how many licenses you have in total, how many are in use, and to verify that your license server is up and running:
