Mulitple Instances of ArcGIS Pro on Multiple Machines

I was working over the weekend to get a CPU intensive raster analysis done, when I calculated the average time for the processes iterations, it was going to exceed my deadline. So I split the dataset and ran it on a secondary machine through ArcGIS Pro (having two instances of AGP on two machines). I attempt to do a similar workflow this week, after the 2.0.1 patch is released, and now I can only run AGP on one machine at a time. This is extremely disappointing, as I often leave processes running overnight at work, and take a laptop home to do additional work or training in AGP. I understand the limitations of leaving the licensing open to an unlimited instances across unlimited machines, but there should be the ability to use multiple instances across two or three machines.arcgispro1012

I had not seen the documentation on the named user licenses use, but until updating with the patch it worked as described in the documentation. Thanks for the link. I will contact support about the issue, and see what happens.

I updated to ArcGIS Pro 2.0.1 yesterday and just now opened 3 simultaneous Pro sessions using my Named User Licensing model on my Instructor laptop.  Sounds like something else is in play here...
