I'm seting up 5 machines installing the maya 3.2.6 standalone version so that they can be rayhosts to perform prarelling rendering, to speed up the preview rendering(1 frame) in maya 5 (MR version 3.2.2.1)

when maya renders with MR, it succesuflly trigger the ray.exe on every rayhost machines. (seen in the task manager) however, maya halt when it nearly finish rendering the last tile.
it seems like the tiles are distributed to rayhosts to render, but fail to collect back from them.
i tried mayarender_with_mr commonline but it still halt at the end of the render

i then tried commanline to render using the standalone MR. this time it succuess while utitlizing the parelling rendering.

seems like the problem lies on the maya MR with the standalone MR.

i have tried copied all shaders to overwrite the standalone versions shaders, so that they have same shader versions....still didn't work

any idea from this ?
thanks
