1 Run time License on 2 Machines

Can I use single run time license on two different machines at the same time? The objective is to execute the script concurrently on two different machine using Ranorex agents

Hi,

I’m afraid, you can’t. You need another license for second machine.

If try to run script on two agents having same run time license then Does it throws any kind of error?
or
It just sit in an queue and wait for an available license once the first agent set the license to Free.

Yes it will throw an error as the second client to lease a key will not be able to lease a key because... there is not one available (assuming you only have one runtime license available)

If you want to run your tests back to back, that is definitely possible, even from a single batch script.

Code: Select all

// Runs the same test on 2 different agents back to back
test.exe /a:agent_name
test.exe /a:agent_name2

if you add 'start' in front of the command, it will run in parallel but you do not seem to have the licenses to support that

Code: Select all

 // Runs the same test on 2 different agents in parallel
start test.exe /a:agent_name
start test.exe /a:agent_name2

hope this helps

Hi,

In case you don’t want the test to be terminated with error, due to unavailable license, you need to implement WaitForAvailableLicense method, as described here...
