I am doing some worker benchmarking and I am in the process of writing a script to pull data from several maintenance jobs that I have set up.
Some of the stats in which I am interested include the Task Time and Startup Time. These are both columns that appear in the Tasks panel in Deadline Monitor, however, in the Deadline Scripting Reference I am unable to find any attributes that would correspond to these values.
There is task.TaskRenderTime, but that is not the same as Task Time, which is equal to Render Time + Startup Time.
Ahoy, bit of a peasant here so there could be some misinformation, but behind the scenes the deadline scripting is just a wrapper over the standalone Python API. In the standalone API you can access everything including these guys with:
I only know how to do that using the normal Deadline connector but it may be possible to piggyback on the existing connection the scripting uses… I’m not sure:
URL = WEB_API_IP/URL
PORT = 8081
dc=DeadlineCon(URL, PORT)
TLDR: Not possible with Deadline Scripting but it is possible with the Standalone API
