Notify the "Manager" computer of a complete Net-Render.
Hi All,
I asked if there was a way to do this out-of-the-box with max, but it seems like it isn't possible... so I'm wondering if a little MaxScript can do the job. I want there to be some kind of a notification given to the "Manager" computer whenever a "Server" computer finishes a network-render job. There is a setting that will notify through email, but thats a bit over-complicated... This notification could be a little popup window on the Manager computer - with a little sound that plays or something. Could anyone do this with MaxScript? I dont think it would be too difficult... Thanks. |

There's probably a way to do it using 'net send' through doscommand. Would require the Messenger service to be running on the manager box. Perhaps I'll look into this when I get my network back up and running.

RE:Manager
Something like this would work I think --
You'd have to run it from the computer the manager was running on. Or you could run netsend as suggested above. clearlistener() file = "C:\thePathoftheSoundFile" -- -- --Initialize m = netrender.getmanager() m.connect #automatic "255.255.255.0" --get queue control if (m.QueryControl #wait) do ( m.getcontrol() ) --getservers server = m.getservers() -- -- --getjobs m.setupdates false job = m.getjobs() m.setupdates true -- -- --functions fn notify = ( if (m.QueryControl #wait) do ( m.getcontrol() ) for i=1 to job.count do ( if job[i].timeFinished != undefined ( shelllaunch file ) ) ) m.setcallback #update notify |
