Maxwell Render

Hi.

I set a cooperative job that was running all day. At the end of the day I wanted to add my workstation to the job to let it run during the night; unfortunately there was some network problem and the server failed to locate some files so it showed like "Failed" in the job queu; after correcting the problem I cannot make the manager use that server again for the same job; I can launch another job with that server if needed but cannot add to cooperative job that previously failed.

Is there any way to make manager understand it is usable again for that job?

I guess I can launch and merge manually with another idcpu or change IP address but it would be good to be able to retry.

Did you try exiting Maxwell Server on the failing node, then restart Maxwell Server?

Help! I'm dispersing into a haze of probability!

I seem to have this problem when 500MB coop mxi's are being merged. One node will crash server. The file is stated as Lost and all other nodes in the group halt stating 'Waiting for others'.

If I restart the server on that node, it goes on to the next job and the final mxi of the previous job is then completed by the remainder of the group.

Yep, as Tim says it is usable for other jobs but that node for the first job gets stuck. It's like it remembers that the node has been used for that particular job and failed so it won't use it again.
