Selections are:

SHARE THIS COMPUTER AS: “QuickCluster with services”
SERVICES: Compressor is highlighted with “SHARE” ticked and “Managed” unticked
QUICKCLUSTER: “include unmanaged services from other computers” is ticked
SECURITY: unticked
SHARING: OFF (so that the button reads “start sharing”

Once again, clicking the “RENDERING” row under services allows me to click “options for selected service” but not when I click compressor! I’ve tried all of the permutations I can think of but to no avail…

Hi,

I’ve already done this but the option still does not appear. If I highlight the rendering line then the “option for selected service” appears. it is only when the compressor row appears that “options for selected service” button disappears. I don’t understand why!

Hi Will,

Thanks for this but I still cant use the advise because I cannot click “options for selected service” when “compressor” is highlighted in the “service” section. It is simply grayed out.

I’m running FCS1 fully updated (compressor being 2.3.1) and OS being 10.5.4 . Am I missing something, why is the option grayed out? Thanks to all for help, nearly there!

Hi,

Thanks for the advice but I’m still having problems! When I click “system preferences” and then “QMASTER” and then the “compressor” line under “services” I cannot click the “options for selected service” to increase the number of cores. Interestingly, when I click the “rendering” button beneath I can then click the options button to change the number of “instances” for that line. The problem is not related to accidentally not clicking the “stop sharing” button either – sharing is off.

Anyone know why this might be?
