max running time

Heya,
Occasionally a renderer will spin up, begin the tessellation process, and just 'sit there' -- it isn't producing buckets, nor is the process terminating...
When this occurs that frame task will live forever locking up that resource until the frame is restarted, or the job is killed.
It would be useful to set a max time limit that one would expect the job to run, and restart frames that exceed that time threshold.
For example, if I'm expecting a render to weigh in at 10mpf, I set max time limit to 30mpf, and any zombie tasks get re-queued.
Thoughts?

Hi!
There are task maximum run time and progress timeout parameters:
https://cgru.readthedocs.io/en/latest/a ... x-run-time
https://cgru.readthedocs.io/en/latest/a ... ge-timeout
You can set this parameters via Python API on job creation, or from GUI on existing job.

Heya Timur,
Apologies for the late response. I had a few days off at the tail end of a project.
I'd be happy to help - Attached is the Artjail logo.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.
Best,
G

Heya Timur,
I've attempted to update my submit scripts with:
Code: Select all
if (rs_override_maxruntime):
block.setTaskMaxRunTime(rs_maxruntime)
However, the block does not appear to error on any positive integer values [1..5] (I assume seconds as per the docs)...
Is there any indicator in the web gui that would show me that this parameter was in fact set? Other parms (such as host mask - see attachment) seem to be setting correctly, and are providing visual feedback.

Ach.
I'm passing "1" as a string -- when I do it correctly, everything works as expected.
... I'll show myself out ...
