Hi and a happy new year to all maxwell users
I have rendered a sequence over the holiday across our local farm, and I am looking for some advice to help me find a stable solution.
My problems is that the rendering just stops after a random amount of frames. If I set 0 - 660 as desired frames, the farm will render sometimes 0 - 270. Then I'll restart the network and start from 271-660. Then it would render as normal before it suddenly stops at 354. And so it goes on. 355-660, 443-660, 570-660.
I am trying to see it the log could tell me something, but it states that the manager is transmitting new frames to the network. So as far as I can tell, there is no real error message for me to decipher.
I have tried to render on a only Mac based farm with send dependancies. And it shows the same behavior as when I mixed up the network with a pc.
I use the latest maxwell on all nodes and mountain lion on the macs.
Do any of you have any clues on how I could find out what really happens when the rendering just stops? Just chime in, and if you need more information about my setup I'll happily share it with you.
Best regards,
Tor Martin
