Passing redshift version to Houdini deadline submission

Tan_Wen_Hao · April 5, 2022, 3:00am

I created a .bat file to launch different Houdini with different redshift coredatapath, however, the coredatapath is not being passed down to deadline, is there a way for the redshift version to be “extracted” upon deadline submission?

I did this by transferring those env vars

I made a copy of this, then set it to only transfer the Redshift env vars on submission, I later had to modify it again to translate the paths

Hi thanks for the script, it works well but now I want to only run with maya, I added this line but it doesn’t seem to work if job.JobPlugin != "MayaBatch" or job.JobPlugin != "MayaCmd": return
