i haven't seen a command in the houdini engine docs where you could unload the engine license but what could be possible in maya unload/load the plugin by a mel command. haven't got maya but that could maybe a solution.

When you have a artist that creates HDA every one can use the HDA. But for the execution you need at least a Engine license on the Artist Computer. What i not know when the license gets load on program load or execution of the HDA.

How many maya artist are there?

I think it the Apple openCL inplementation.
