  • Distributed rendering and the standalone command promt

    Hi, I'm trying to render an image with the standalone version of vray. I want to use distributed rendering with 4 other machines.
    The command to start vray is:

    -sceneFile=M:/vray/RenderScene.vrscene -distributed=1 -renderhost=comp1;comp2;comp3;comp4 -display=1

    compX stands for the ip addresses of the single machines.
    But I always get the error message:

    Could not connect to host comp1: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
    Could not connect to host comp2: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
    Could not connect to host comp3: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
    Could not connect to host comp4: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
    Using 0 hosts for distributed rendering.

    In the office DR rendering works just fine on a different machine but there we use Maya and not the standalone version.

    Long story short: Is there an error in the command prompt or is the command prompt correct and something is wrong with the network settings?

    The vray version is 1.5 sp1 so DR rendering should already be a service and starting the servermode with vray -server should not be necessary on every single render slave right?

    Thank you for helping.

    Add -portNumber=20207 to the command line.
