Maya Bifrost Job - Cache file extantion - cache file handling?

Hello, everyone,
I hope someone can help me.
I am setting up the “Renderfarm” - 2x Workstations" for our educational institutes.
So far I have managed everything (Maya: Arnold, Redshift, Houdini caching and Mantra).
But now I despair at the Bifrost of Maya.
I want to order the caching via the submitter of maya.

As far as clear that I have to set up Bifrost Simulation job.

The farm also creates files but with the file extension which is set in the render globals (which is stupid). So .ext or something else.

I also don’t know what format it should be and I don’t know how to use it as a cache file because it’s just a file.


The rendering

So I also have the problem if I have the cache files and link them to the network 123.123.123.123\MYCACHEFILES rendering I get rendering without bifrost sim.

I/We/the students would be really grateful for help.

Greeting
