How are the render threads being defined for each node?
Do you have to use 0 (automatic), or can you set these individually?
If yes, do you need direct access to each node (KVM) or can this be done from the node running the manager?

Thanks.

if you're wanting to change the thread count for each node independently, i'm pretty sure you have to run the mxs independently on each machine then manually merge the mxi's (ask ernesto for help on this subject )... (yes, KVM will make your life easier in this case) or there might be a way to do it through command line if you're command line savvy... which i know i'm not.

setting the number of threads in the add job network panel sets the # of threads globally. (i have network running now and tried clicking on each individual address in the add job panel, and changed the thread # but it seems that just don't work the way you want it to)

I think "0" will do.

What I do is set the threads to 0, then go around to each node and change the "set affinity" setting in the task manager for maxwell.exe.

I see, thanks guys.
