How to use distributed optimization with floating licenses
In Gurobi Optimizer 6.0.5, we introduced a new feature so that you can run distributed optimization using a floating network license.
To use this, you need to do the following:
- Install Gurobi Optimizer on the computer that will serve as the token license server, and configure the Gurobi token server (grb_ts).
Install Gurobi Optimizer on any computer that will run the distributed algorithms, and configure Gurobi Remote Services (grb_rs) on those computers.
Install Gurobi Optimizer on any computer where users will run the Gurobi software, and configure that computer as a client of the token server.For detailed instructions, please see the Quick Start Guide:
