Setting Processers Used

Hi were trying to find a way to designate the processors each computer uses when rendering, is there a way to do this. Changing concurrent task limit override to 2 didn’t seem to work.

thanks,

The concurrent task option sets the number of tasks that are dequeued simultaneously by the slaves. By default, the number of tasks dequeued at a time is capped at the number of CPUs the slave machine has. Does this not appear to be working?

Depending on the software that you are rendering with, there may be cpu/thread options in the scene’s render options. In all cases, Deadline will respect these settings, so it might just be a matter of setting some render options before submitting the scene.
