hi all,
i've 2 master licenses and 9 nodes. So, two people here are trying to "send jobs to network" from Lightwave, but it seems only one of us can run Manager. So, other guy cant see the nodes and cant use network rendering.
More precisely, when one of us starts manager, other guy can start it on his machine but it cant see any node. I even tried to reduce max connected nodes to 4, i hoped this would leave other 5 nodes free, but this didnt happen.
Is this normal ? any tip ?

thanks,
Paolo

You don't need a second manager;
Just a second 'monitor' to submit jobs.
So I think you should be fine as long as the 2nd user can access the machine running the manager over the network.
