render farm setup 2004-02-29 - By PTT
Back Hi all,
I would like some 'real world' experience feedback on setting up and administrating a render farm. XSI tech advice would be greatly appreciated too! You can respond off list.
We currently have a studio of 14 XSI stations which are not on a network and are FINALLY moving towards networking them in order to use them as a render farm.
Here's the deal - it's a student lab, so it needs to be managed in such a way to support multiple users and multiple projects. Which works best in this scenario - batch rendering or distributed rendering? Our goal - to speed up rendering time as well as to manage projects.
Thanks for any and all help!
