Netwerk Rendering Error: "no disk space left on manager"

Hi all,

 

When rendering files through a netwerk, I recently have a lot of errors that read 'no disk space left on manager'.

 

- In the same file, some image sequences get rendered, others not (no reasonable distinqtion between the setup as I've only changed a light multiplier...)

- Both HD's of the server, manager and destination disk have enough unused space

- rebooting servers and manager doesn't help

- cleaning out the 'netwerk/jobs' dir doesn't help

- can't find anything in the max troubleshooting guide

 

Does anyone knows how to solve this problem?

(for the record: we use max3.1 and Network Manager R3.2)

 

tnx in advance!

lol strat,

 

In 2.5 weeks we have a 3 week holliday... so I'll crack my teeth on max5 demo than... I hope to get it to work into our workflow... ;-p

 

anyway... it's about the artist, not the software... right? ;-p

Nisus,

 

I saw your post on the MAX webboard, and I suggest you post it in the Network Rendering session.

 

Some quick questions:

 

- Does c:\temp have lotsa free space (or wherever the Windows temp folder is)

- Does the drive that contains your 3dsmax\Network folder contains free space?

- Do you have more than 512 files/folders in any of them?

- Is it NTFS or FAT?

Hi Alexander,

 

Yup, I saw you on the discreet forum too. Tnx for replying as I almost never got ANY reply on the discreet forum. (Only after 10 days and a few 'no one?'-s)

 

Anyway, tnx for you help. I reposted in the section you recommended ;)

 

- All drives have more than 3.5Gb space.

- not more than 512 folders

- some destinations do have more than 512 files (as we render out animation frames)

- both are NTFS

Hi Alex,

 

Doesn't matter... I hope someone knows the answer in the end. I rechecked HD-space and got over 24Gb left on the manager...

 

Anyway, tnx a lot for your RTsetup script in max3.1, we use it all the time. It's even part of our standard interface! I just didn't realize you wrote it, until I was giving training a few days ago.
