V-Ray 7 for Rhino - Perpetual and V-Ray Render Node - Annual Problem

[mackl]

Is it possible that V-Ray 7 for Rhino - Perpetual and V-Ray Render Node - Annual are not compatible? I only ever get one node addressed and this one renders. All others remain ‘ ’reserved’

I cannot address my existing 4 nodes. This would also explain the constant problems under Vray 6 permanent licence and the nodes V6 with Swarm 1.4.



I ask for clarification

[mackl]

Or that my permanent licence VRRhino 7 and the logoV-Ray Premium Annual are interfering with each other and cannot handle the nodes.

I ask for clarification

[mackl]

I have X nodes, but only one VRfor Rhino 7 is addressed

[mackl]

and: Vray fR 6 cannot address vray7 nodes. No upgrade compatibility. Is that correct?

[mackl]

So: I urgently need help with these problems!!! I have paid for it... Solutions are not available

Hello mackl,

You should be able to use your nodes with V-Ray Render Node license, also there should be no issues in using Swarm from V-Ray for Rhino 6 for distributed rendering on nodes with V-Ray 7 Render Node license.
Could you please try adding the swarm-runner-appsdk.exe (C:\Program Files\Chaos\V-Ray\Swarm 2\swarm-runner-appsdk.exe) to the Firewall exceptions on all machines and let me know if it fixes the issue?

Kind regards,
Iva

Thank you,

There seems to be a conflict between subscription and perpetual licence when accessing subscription nodes.
I can only access the swarm if I start both Vray licences (subscription and perpetual) on 2 workstations. Then everything runs stable and the nodes are controlled with swarm. If I start only 1 WS, I get no response and nodes are displayed as reseverd.
I can work for now because this solution works.

Best regards

Marcel
