Title: Corona DR
Post by: aylama on 2015-05-26, 10:20:29

Hello,
we have 3 licenses of Corona by the moment. And we need to use the distributed rendering, but we don't find Corona DR for install it. Or It is automatically installed? Where? We don't find DrServer.exe.
And, how can we set the slaves licenses on computers that do not have work licenses ?
Thank you for your help :-)

1. Run the standard installer and look at it more closely: you can choose to install DR server there (deactivated by default)

2. Same goes for the Licensing server which you need for your second question

See

Good Luck!

P.S.: Someone with helpdesk access should move the Licensing server part on top of https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000618549 . At the moment people need to dig through the rather complicated stuff until they get to the fastest, easiest and most reliable option for activation.

Frood, thanks for the feedback. It was a case of "spent too much time refining it". :)

Thank you very much.
I installed the DR Server on two computers that I want to use as render nodes . One with licensed work and on the other have activated the license slave (I think) with the Licensing server.
But I can not render from my computer , my 3dsmax recognizes slaves but when the slaves render start just seconds , then closed connect.

Here are screenshots of my computer and one of the nodes:

Look closely at Captura2.JPG. You used the same IP address twice...

Good Luck!

Ah, I see. I never used "Search LAN during render" so I was not familiar with this behaviour.

Good Luck!
