The job’s ID and Status will be tracked in the submitter, and as nodes pick up the job, they will show up in theĪctive Servers list. Check ALL/INVERT/Check NONE (3dsMax only): Easily enable all/invert/none all currently listed Deadline Slaves in the Active Servers List.Īfter you’ve configured your submission options, press the Reserve Servers button to submit the V-Ray Spawner job.Active Servers (3dsMax only): Individual Deadline Slaves can be enabled/disabled here (V-Ray Spawner as a job will still continue to run on the disabled Slaves until the job is deleted/completed/suspended).Complete Job After Render (3dsMax only): When checked, as soon as the DR session has completed (max quick render finished), then the Deadline job will be marked as complete in the queue.

Automatically Update Server List (3dsMax only): This option when un-checked stops the automatic refresh of the active servers list based on the current Deadline queue.Use Server IP Address instead of Host Name: If checked, the Active Servers list will show the server IP addresses instead of host names.Typically, opening TCP/UDP ports in the range: 20200-20300 will cover all V-Ray implementations for DBR.

It is recommended to disable any client firewall whilst initial testing/configuration is carried out. The port number needs to be identical on all machines including the workstation machine for a particular DCC application to communicate correctly. In the case of Softimage, this is necessary because Softimage uses V-Ray Standalone for distributed rendering and the default port number for V-Ray in Softimage is different from the default port number in V-Ray Standalone.

Here is a consolidated list of port requirements for the various versions of V-Ray. You can simply re-queue or delete/complete the current DBR job or re-submit. This can be helpful if V-Ray DBR becomes unstable and a user wishes to reset the system remotely. This makes our system more flexible and resilient to crashes as when we terminate the V-Ray DBR job in the Deadline queue, the Deadline Slave application will ‘cleanly’ tidy up V-RaySpawner/Standalone and more importantly, any DCC application (3dsMax/Maya) or Standalone instances which it in turn has spawned as a child process. Deadline is more flexible here and will spawn the V-RaySpawner/Standalone executable as a child process of the Deadline Slave.

The interactive submitter will submit a V-Ray Spawner job (V-Ray Standalone for Maya, Softimage, 3dsMaxRT, Rhino, Sketchup) to reserve render nodes, and the submitter will automatically update the V-Ray server list.ĭo NOT execute or install the Chaos Group V-RaySpawner (V-RaySpawner/V-RaySpawner RT/V-Ray Standalone) executable as a background service (NT service/daemon). The instructions for installing the integrated submission script can be found further down this page. You can submit interactive V-Ray DBR jobs from 3ds Max, Maya, Rhino, or Softimage.
