CGRU Forum

Restarting all machines seems to solve the issue. When it happens again I'll be back. Thanks!

Hi,

what is causing this? The task will not be rendered.

Hi,

Blender renderings with a stereo camera will not be correctly shown in the final result. Blender will render two frames and the time will not be added but the time of the last render only.

Thanks,

We were wrong. After disabling the "Magic Packet only" option something else is waking up the machines all the time after setting them to sleep. We thought that CGRU works now, but when we set the PCs to sleep they woke up within a minute later automatically. Turning off "Wake up on P...

Yes. But now we have another issue. When I set all 22 PCs to sleep one failed to sleep (get stuck). And when I try to wake up not everyone will wake up. Even when I connect with AnyDesk CGRU shows still "offline". It looks like the Afrender task needs to be restarted.

We solved it. CGRU seems not to support "magic packets" (Win10/11). Turning this off in the adapter will let CGRU wake up our PCs now.

Hi,

thanks for the info.

Does CGRU send Magic Packets?

A happy new year!

We are also stuck with WOL. We can set the CGRU clients into sleep mode but we can't wake them up. Using different WOL tools work. How can we debug the issue without knowledge of Python? The LOG files don't help here.

Thanks,

I could discover the issue. It's a Maya 2022.3 batch render bug caused by Bifrost plug-ins. After investigation, I found out that two Bifrost plug-ins in pluginPrefs.mel are responsible: evalDeferred("autoLoadPlugin("", "bifrostGraph", "bifrostGraph")"); evalD...

It's confirmed as a bug by the dev team.
