VRay v 1.5 er nå
releaset & distribuert.
Denne versjonen MÅ ha en dongle (HW lås) for å
fungere. Vi har sendt dongle til alle som har kjøpt VRay fra oss,
men dongle kan også bestilles fra oss separat.
Viktig - fra release av
VRay 1.5 SP4 (29.okt) selges dongle separat fra SW - dvs har
man dongle fra før så kan man kjøpe tilleggslisenser til en
eksisterende dongle - evt kjøpe ekstra dongle.
Bestilling av dongle
* Tidligere versjoner av VRay ble
supportert med SW lås kun fram til slutten av 2007.
* Den nyeste lisensserver (den som
kommer med 1.5 Final Release) må installeres for at 1.5 FR skal
fungere.
* 64 - bit brukere må installere
siste versjon av WIBU drivere - nedlastes fra
* Det må brukes korrekt versjon av
dongle som tilsvarer VRay lisensen (commercial, edu etc)
Vi har nylig sendt ut HW lås til VRay brukere som en del av en
gradvis innføring av låsbasert lisensering - her er noe info om
bruken:
So how does it work?
The new V-Ray licensing system works exactly as it has been working
in the past with some changes that we will now explain.
Same as before, we have a license server. Up to now, the license
server was called the VRLServer.exe and it had to be either placed
in the Windows startup folder, or started manually by the current
user every time one would like to use V-Ray. At present, the license
server is called the VRLService.exe and it provides the licenses
over the network as it used to do in the past. The difference is
that it can be run as a SERVICE, too, which means that it can start
and run without the need of logging-in and launching it manually.
It can be started automatically on-boot prior to users’ logging-in.
Another difference is that the VRLService.exe needs a dongle in
order to operate. It needs the dongle to start (which means that the
dongle has to be plugged-in when the service is starting) and then
it needs the dongle to read the license from it. If the dongle is
removed while the server is running, the server will continue to
work for a few more minutes, but then it will stop serving the
licenses. If a dongle is plugged-in on the fly, the server will
discover it in a minute or two and will start to provide licenses
again. The service need not be restarted in these cases, unless the
customers want to catch up with the licenses immediately, instead of
waiting for the automatic discovery.
The dongles use WIBU drivers to operate. The V-Ray installation has
incorporated these WIBU drivers in it (the installation first asks
for the hardware lock - see Reference 1), so that whenever V-Ray is
installed, the wizard asks you whether to install the WIBU drivers
for the dongles or not (see Reference 2). Please make sure the
check-box of the WIBU drivers for the dongles is marked. This would
assure their automatic installation. The WIBU drivers are also
available from the site of WIBU-Systems AG and can be downloaded
freely at
http://wibu.com. In this case, during V-Ray installation,
there is no need to check the box of the WIBU drivers. Please
remember that the WIBU drivers must be running in order for the
dongle to be operative.
