■ (Offline) If you launch a command line mental ray for Maya render, the
computer you launched the command from then becomes the master
machine for mental ray for Maya satellite rendering.
NOTE If you have launched Maya but have not yet rendered with mental ray
for Maya since the start of your interactive session, no mental ray for Maya line
item from your networked license is checked out. You may therefore start a
command line mental ray for Maya render from another host. This checks out
the mental ray for Maya portion of the license, making it unavailable for any
other workstation, including the workstation of the user who launched Maya.
For more details on mental ray rendering, see the Rendering sections of the
Maya Help, as well as the mental ray reference included with the Maya Help.
