The Versions page can be accessed by typinghttp://[IP_ADDRESS]:24267/vray-versions or from the V-Ray Swarm Menu. There, the uploaded V-Ray Standalone builds are displayed under Available V-Ray versions. There can be more than one, depending on the V-Ray builds currently installed and used for rendering within 3D applications.  If the Workstation needs a V-Ray build different from the one/s the machine already has, it will be uploaded and started for rendering the job.
