Regarding the longer startup times: I moved my licenses to a new server last
week (win srv2016) and also installed the newest version of flexlm. No delay
and same startup times as before. Latest NLM by Autodesk using flexlm
v11.14.1.3.
Do you have (accidently) configured MR satellite rendering? This will cause
longer startup times, especially when the machines in the rayhost file are
not accessible.

Subject: Re: ADSK *can* be very helpful :)

I have absolutely!! no love for AD but I will chime in on this. We had
stupid issues with getting our new Maya licenses working after upgrading
FlexLM (the pile of crap) which was required for running newer Maya
versions.

I reported the issue and the next day a AD license support person actually
called me on the phone and resolved the issue via remote support.

The solution was horribly stupid and involved fixing windows files(!) but
eventually it worked. A negative sideeffect was that now Softimage takes
ages to start up (probably because it takes a long time to get licens
granted) Grrrr

I was surprised and pleased about the call, and it goes to show that not
everything is bad at AD. It doesn't change my dislike of their corporate
policies and software offerings though. Maya is still crap.
