Is it possible to connect multiple Ayon Servers to a single Deadline repository?
I noticed the “Additional Ayon Servers” section in Deadline’s plugin settings, but it only has the option to use one API key.
Wouldn’t the other servers also need a deadline user?
As documentation states:
In AYON DL plugin: Additional AYON servers could include a secondary production server used in your studio or a development server to keep development work isolated from production.
They are added in the form http://11.2.3.47@myapikey1
So, you need a service user on each AYON server.
then you’d need to enable this setting Add AYON server to farm job in your AYON server deadline addon settings.
intresting!
how come there are multiple servers? are they backup servers, if yes do they sync database?!
no nothing that fancy…yet.
Using one for training purposes and smaller projects, and one for actual projects. A few reasons for this, I don’t want to bog down the main server with unnecessary load for minor tasks, as we had issues in the past with overloading the server with too many concurrent connections. I only have one render farm using Deadline. Both sets of users would be rendering on the same farm.
