[GIS] FME error – failed to validate FME worker licence key

fme

The FME licence I have access to is a floating one.

The issue seems to be easy to recognize (see attached log) however there are some doubts I would like to ask for.

While the process is really machine consuming I have some suspicious that the error of the FME is not due to "Failed to validate FME worker licence key" but it's more related to the task the machine has to deal with. Can it be ?

The error always occurs in the same point of proccessing time.

How does FME check for the licence key ? Just at the start of the workbench or there are some "milestones" during the processes where the licence has to be confirmed again ?

Please find below a part of the log.

Thanks in advance for the help.

As a workaround, check your workspace for transformers that contain "Parallel Processing Level" options, and change those to "No Parallelism".
