I'll have direct access to a cluster with about 200 total CPUs.

Question is if will be possible to use it as render farm, with just the 1 Mantra token attached with Apprentice license.

Understood Mantra license is locked on the server name, wondering if this mean I'll be able to use just one node of the cluster.

If this [odforce.net] is still valid I'll not be able to generate .ifd files to be distributed, won't be able to use remote processing nor multiprocessing, also I'll need a license for every node.
Definitely a no go.
