This is the sixth and final release candidate for Deadline 7, and mainly fixes a few bugs.
Here are the highlighted changes:
Monitor Improvements
- Fixed a bug that existed in a bunch of Monitor submission scripts, which caused the submission to fail if using the Shotgun options to upload a movie or filmstrip.
- When resubmitting a job that was scheduled to start at a certain time, the flag that indicates if the job has been resumed already is now reset.
Pulse Improvements
- Fixed a bug in the Machine Startup feature of Power Management that would result in no slaves being woken up for a job with an empty whitelist.

- Changed maxTileAssembler command to use “HiddenDOSCommand” to hide console window on slave.
- SMTD - Added an option to permanently rename render elements during submission.
- SMTD - Fixed a bunch bugs that could affect how the output paths are passed to Deadline.
