Version: The version of V-Ray Benchmark to run. The general Deadline options are explained in the Job Submission documentation. Please refer to the Maintenance Jobs documentation for more information. Using this, you don’t need to specify a frame range or worry about a render node doing the benchmark more than once, or not at all.

A render node will also only render one task from this job and leave the job alone afterwards. You specify a frame range equal to the number of render nodes you wish to benchmark, and combine that with Groups or a Machine List to specify which ones to check.Ī ‘Maintenance’ job differs in that it’s a special job type that creates a task for each render node in your farm. Please refer to the Job Submission for information on general submission options.Ī ‘Normal’ job is best used when you only wish to benchmark a few render nodes.

There are two different ways that you can run V-Ray Benchmark on the render nodes in your farm, a ‘Normal’ job and a ‘Maintenance’ job. V-Ray Benchmark can be used to approximate the performance of individual render nodes across your farm! To make the best use of your available compute resources for rendering, it can be beneficial to determine which render nodes perform the best and, if any, perform below expectations.
