Failed to start workflow. This server is not licensed + Nintex 2010 + SP2010

Problem description:
Some users reported that there are workflows with errors. This error occurs it looks like there is some issue with the license on a farm’s server.

Error message:
Failed to start workflow. This server is not licensed.



Probable Possibilities:
The server admins are incorrect; the Nintex licenses are not configured correctly.  If this were true, I would expect the error to occur more frequently, and not just when multiple workflows start.  For example, I would expect a workflow manual start to occasionally throw the error.

There is a problem with the way Nintex checks for licensing when workflows are distributed among front-end servers or queued up for execution.

Thank you.
