You can check the user numbers who are using the licenses in License Details to know the remaining nodes

available.

For example: If your network license has two nodes and both are activated and currently being used. So there will be no nodes left for other users to activate or borrow. If one from the two users quits GstarCAD 2024, the node will be back to license manager, and there will be one license available which can be activated or borrowed.

1.2 Check the Users Who Have Borrowed the Network License from Your Server

GstarCAD network license allows borrowing the node for a period from the server. The license manager list shows the borrowed node number and the nodes left. The Borrowed Detail shows the lend information. For example: If your network license has two nodes totally, one user has borrowed a node from the server, so only one node is available and can be activated or borrowed.
