Render Issue/Question?
I’m rendering out a project that is pulling footage from 5 different drives on my SAN.
I have my 6th drive set as my capture scratch disk, but for some reason Final cut is giving me an error when I go to render the project. The error is something like ” File error: the file is locked.:
When I set my other 5 drives to write access in my Fibre Managemenrt software (FiberJet), the project will render fine.
My issue is I don’t want to tie up those other drive with write access, when I actually just need to read from them.
Other stations need write access to those drives for thier projects.

Try trashing everything in your render files folder off the 6th drive that isn’t working and rendering again. See if that yields any better results.

Thanks Paul.
I just finished rendering out with my other drives set to write access.
I’m not about to trash the render files and re-render a 3 hour render just to test something out, but this has happened in the past and now I know what to try when it happens again.

Did you ever get this resolved? We are experiencing this exact problem and wondering if there is a fix.
