We have 2 Flames here and I need to move some stuff from one to the other. If I look at Flame 3 from Flame 1, I can’t see any of Flame 3’s projects when looking at projects under the Autodesk Network. When I look at Flame 1 from Flame 3 through the Autodesk network, I see Flame 1’s projects, however If I try to push anything to Flame 1 from Flame 3, the destination library is locked. If I try acquire write access, it says "cannot acquire exclusive write access. Locked by ‘Flame’ on ‘flame1’ How do I get this to work? ---

1. You probably have linux permission issues. 2. You need to “Release Exclusive Access” for the library on Flame1 to be able to push to it from Flame 3 ---

How do I do that? Just to add, on Flame 1, I have released exclusive access, but it is still showing as locked on Flame 3. ---

Looks like I was being an idiot. You can’t copy to a project on another flame if its open. Doh! ---

Still doesn’t explain why I can only push and not pull. Is there anything I should do to see the other flames projects? ---

Yeah, you should be able to pull pretty much at will. You have something going on with your networking or permissions. Sometimes it gets dumb after a reboot. Quit flame on both machines and do “systemctl restart autofs nfs” (no quotes) as root and then try again? ---

No, centos 7. The command runs ok on one machine, but not the other. ---

Then that machine isn’t happy for some reason. Full moon? Venus in retrograde? 🙂 I’d definitely open a case with support. Likely its something really simple. ---

It’s planned for, a rebuild, but I need to get a project out first. ---

Tried that, twice. my flame has been sick for some time, but as I say, gotta get this project out the door first.
