[Condor-users] Slave machine produces no output; return value 203

[Gunther Anon <guntheranon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 

I am attempting to render a Maya scene file.  I have 3 physical computers and 12 virtual machines in my pool.  The physical attributes of the machines are identical.  I'm using condor_render.exe to produce and submit the jobs to condor.  If I render more than 4 frames, some of the rendered images do not show up.  For example, if I render 45 frames, only about 20 images show up.  I have narrowed the problem down to the jobs rendered on the slave computers.  These jobs return a value of 203 as indicated in the log files below.  Jobs rendered on the master return a value of 0.

 

According to the starter log on the slave machine (included below), everything appears the same as on the master starter log until we get down to the line, fourth from the bottom:

 

5/7 05:27:15 Process exited, pid=2176, status=203

Can anyone tell me what return value 203 means?  What steps should I take to correct the problem.

 

Any help greatly appreciated.  Thank you.
