Hello All you guys,
Im new into Deadline environment nevertheless I tried to configure Deadline with two slaves. Deadline Repository is locate on the X machine and the same slave is running on the X machine, X is a Mac OS 10.8.3 and im trying to submint a simple Command Script Job inserting “ping google.com” into the Command Script Options into a Y machine. Y machine is a Windows 7 Machine, which correctly connects to the Deadline Repository.
The think is that DeadLine Monitor is reporting that the following:
