vrayspawner process management

[henning]

Hello!

I'm experimenting with different ways to start, kill and monitor the status of the vrayspawner process/service.
Maybe someone of you can help: I'm using the following command to start the process.

wmic /NODE:"rendernode" process call create "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2015\vrayspawner2015.exe"

It works very fast, if the rendernode is running. Thats what I like about it! But Vray cannot connect to the spawner process, even if the process is running and 3dsmax.exe is also running as its child process.
It's a bit offtopic, but hey, I can try

regards
Henning
