Can I perform multiple compilations at the same time on one computer with a single-seat license?

Environment

    Intel® Quartus® Prime Design Software
BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

You cannot perform multiple simultaneous compilations using the Quartus® Prime Software if you have a floating license with a single license seat. The number of concurrent compilations that can be run on a single computer cannot exceed the number of available license seats.

If you have one fixed (node-locked) license, you can run multiple simultaneous compilations on that machine.

 

Resolution

See the related solution below for details on when the Quartus® Prime Software checks for available licenses.
