Let’s say i have 17 3delight license.
During the day, half of my farm is generally occupied by nuke. So i add some workstation to my 3delight pool.
But, during the night, the compositing render ends, and i have too much computer in this pool.
Can i tell deadline that, for a plugin, only 17 node is allowed to render at the same time ?
If i put in on a job, the other job will render on the extra node, with does not do what i need.

You need to set up Limits for this:
thinkboxsoftware.com/deadline-5-limitgroups/
Then when submitting a 3delight job, just choose the 3delight limit you’ve created.
Cheers,
Wow great feature ! Thks !
Another question reagrding this feature.
Now, all my local workstation can render with 3delight. Wich is awesome, it never render more than 17 3delight at the same time. But during the night, when all the nuke script are rendered, 3delight continues tu render on the local workstation, wich are less powerful than my node. Is there a way to tell deadline, in this limit, i want you to priorize those node, if those node arent avaible, take the other one include in this limit.
Thks
Fred
Hey Fred,
There is no sense of node priority in Deadline. If you know that your Nuke scripts will always up overnight, maybe you could set up scheduling to close the slave on the workstation at a certain time so only the powerful nodes are available:
