You can also use the “Output file” parameter in the submission panel.
You can specify a string like this “\myrepositoryoutputrendermyscene[####].png”
1st June 2013 at 3:38 pm #15225If it’s the ‘T’ column of the instances, you have a problem with the template execution on a specific instance.
i.e.
if you send a maya job to the farm and an error sign appears in the T column of an instance, means that node can’t process this job (may maya not be installed correctly or that node can’t access a network path, etc…).
After a few failed tries the maya template for that instance are marked wrong, and the dispatcher don’t try to send others maya job to the instance.When you want, you can reset this error status by right click on the instance and select “purge job/template exclusion list”.
1st June 2013 at 3:29 pm #15224I believe that you should use the additional parameter “-rt” to specify how many threads you want to use for a job.
You can define this parameter at template level for every instance (instance->configure->template->maya mr->maximum threads) or with the additional flags of the job (from the submission panel->additional flags).
The instance affinity mask is a platform specific parameter (only work in windows and linux) and the maya mr process can override this setting by itself.

20th May 2013 at 3:25 pm #15219Hi,
if you inspect the log file, you can find the exact command line lanched by Muster.Copy and paste the command line in a terminal console to verify if the arguments are correct.
Regards
22nd April 2013 at 1:39 pm #15217In every template you can find a section like this:
DECLARE ERROR
{
ADD WARNING “warning”
ADD ERROR “error” “Error”
ADD ERROR_RETCODE -1
ADD WARNING_RETCODE 1
ADD DEFAULT_RETCODE 0
}This section define the string pattern to parse output log from render engine.
You can edit this behavior editing the template from console.
29th December 2012 at 11:16 am #152021) Submit Job from Maya to Muster: you can find Maya MEL script inside installation package (see Muster Manual to install and configure this plugin)
2) Render Layers: Muster don’t support direct split of Maya layers into multiple render jobs; you need to create a job for each layer and adding “-rl [layerName]” to “Additional Flags” in the submission panel; you can find more information at this link http://download.autodesk.com/us/maya/2009help/index.html?url=Vari_Batch_and_commandline_render_with_layers.htm,topicNumber=d0e579619

It’s a render client install or dispatcher install ?
