Setting up Distributed rendering Problems

[stevejjd]

Hi Guys,
Im trying to set up distributed rendering.

I installed 3ds max and Vray using "3ds max render slave".

But now 3ds max takes about 5 minutes to startup. It because it looking for a licence.

I have entered the correct IP address of the host computer with the licence dongle on it.

How do I fix this problem?

Thanks.

Steve.

Hi,

Please make sure that the entered IP address in V-Ray License server information window is saved on this new render node. Sometimes it needs to be opened with Run as admin. Also make sure that you have enough free licenses.
If you still have problems to configure it, you can create a ticket in our system: support@chaosgroup.com
