    AutoCad Options File Reservations

    Good morning,

     

    I'm looking to implement a number of reservations using the ADSKFLEX.OPT file by setting up a number of groups or Projects for computers.  My query is:

     

    * Do you need to specify each version of AutoCAD, Revit etc.. so autocad 2011,2012,2013 or can I reserver 3 licensed for a HOST_GROUP to the AutoCAD suite? and Revit Strucutre Suites etc? 

     

    RESERVE 3 ACD_F PROJECT HOST_SOMEGROUP  ?

    Please use plain text.

    Yes you can specifiy the package name. It will reserve automatically for all the features within that package.

     

    RESERVE command can be against a feature or package.

     

    Please refer to this documentation for other commands if it accepts Feature or package

    Keep in mind though that if you reserve 3 seats of the package, it will reserve 3 seats for each release, taking up essentially 12 seats.  However, you won't see this problem until a user who is not in the group tries to access a license when you have fewer than 12 seats total.  They will get denied and you won't know why until you understand this fact.
