Hi team!
In our office we have setup a Distributed Rendering system with two mini render farms to do the jobs. They have static IP, they are added in the servers list and everything works great.
To increase horse power we thought to add Vray nodes in the office workstations, and add them to the renderfarm during nights when people don't work.
We installed the nodes on these machines. My question is, is there a way to find out which machine is available on the network so I can add it to the rendering jobs.
Unlike in Vray for Rhino, I cannot click on Find Servers, in order to see them an add them. Also, I cant add them manually by typing the IP, as the workstations have dynamic IP and I would have to do that day by day for each computer. (ps. I am not using Backburner. Just vray and 3dsmax)
Other issue, when I try to add one workstation manually and start the render, it accepts the job, but the machine is not responding. Tired with different ones, always not responding... What can it be???
Thank you all.
