If one node fails, auto retry with different node
Posted: Fri Jan 04, 2013 9:05 pm
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as of now, there is no way to automatically re-attempt a failed job/frame. (net render)
If I run a multi-day animation render, and some frames fail, I will have to manually re-submit those frames as a new job later on. If all the failed frames came from one node, couldn't it have been arranged that:
This would at least keep things moving along, instead of one bad node going along "failing" frames and derailing the whole queue.

Code: Select all
In other words, keep failed frames in the queue, and then officially make them "failed" after the second attempt.If frame fails
Then
Retry with next available nodeThis would at least keep things moving along, instead of one bad node going along "failing" frames and derailing the whole queue.
