Hi,
I'm rendering a frame sequence 1-24 on one machine and I have Distributed Rendering enabled in my render globals.
If the slave(s) are not up and running by the time the master machine has started rendering, it seems like that the master machine does not attempt to retry slave connection(s) between frames (or during rendering of a frame). Please see attached output for further explanation (the master machine is rendering all frames in one go).
I think it would be great idea if the master machine would re-attempt slave connections to bring new DR slaves onto the job.
We are now managing DR jobs through our render manager, queuing up DR jobs alongside "regular" non-DR jobs which is incredibly powerful, but this is the currently missing piece of the puzzle; getting new DR slaves to hop onto an already running job.
I'm on V-Ray for Maya 2.30.02 - Maya 2014.
Regards,
Fredrik
