I have some updates but I am not sure if they may help. Better share them with you in any case.
Lets start:
- Yesterday I sent to Backburner 6 jobs.
- At 10pm I checked via TeamViewer the DR Master to see how the jobs are doing.
- One of the job was freezed under this condition: Corona VFB was open but freezed, the noise threshold was reached so the job was completed at 100% but Corona was there, waiting and doing nothing.
- I decided to check what the others DR servers where doing at this point.
- DR Server 03 was in standby mode! Not working at all, normal if you consider that the rendering process had reached the 100% state.
- I then connected to my personal workstation which during the nights I use is as DR server as well, guess what??? The DR server mode was on rendering!!! WTF! :)
- I checked the Logs and I found that in that specific moment was calculating passes and couldn't send the file to the DR Master!!!
- I closed the DR server on my machine at this point and you know what? The DR Master finally completed the job instantly and saved the file...
- Last thing, I opend the task manager of my PC and I found another 3ds Max process going on but I closed the DR server a while ago. It seems that a second 3ds Max process was going on and maybe created prblems to the DR process at the end? I don't know guys.
- I started the DR server on my machine again and till now all the rest of Backburner jobs are go on without problems till now.
Excuse me for the long message here but I am trying to hel and be as detailed as I can.
Thanks,

Hi, are you using Corona DR? Or Backburner servers? I want to setup the same scenario and so far I was able to set up with Backburner servers only when using Backburner Monitor.
Thank you for your patience :)
