Ok this is what I do:
- set the simulation (when I sim it locally it renders fine through BB so all paths are ok)
- check the BB mode switch
- network rendering a single frame on a single slave
- error on that slave "FumeFx license does not exist"
Now our renderfarm:
- 8 nodes and a license server (192.168.1.9)
- DCPflics installed on license server and running
- it is probably properly setup since I managed to authorize 4 SL licenses on it from a workstation through network
- sidenote: the only licenses on license server in DCPflics are these 4 SLs - all other plugins are authorized localy on each workstation
- anyway, DCPflics on the license server shows 4 SL licenses - so everything is cool here.
- on the render slave DCPFlics is installed (should it also be running?)
- slave's dcpflics.ini:
[Port]
4002
[Servers]
192.168.1.9
[Guests]
everyone
Now, I copied dcpflics.lic from a workstation to the license serwer, the license serwer's dcp tools showed licences for DS, AB and Fume.
When I run Max on the render node and choose FumeFX it gives me a dcpflics error with the ip 192.168.1.9 saying that the license has to be reauthorized - which is logical and the sytem works.
I returned dcpflics.lic files as they should be.
What else can I try?
- I think I sent the job to BB properly
- DCP on the render node and the license serwer seem to be working fine and talking to eachother
Any ideas?
