Stalled slave alert

Deadline
1

Is there any way to get Deadline to send an email alert when a slave stalls? I can’t find anything in the documentation, but it would be a very useful feature to save manual monitoring of our farm (or relying on the artists to tell me when a slave has stalled).

Thanks.

Yes!

Enter your email address into the “Stalled Applications” field. (Make sure your email server SMTP details are tested and correct as well; configure both primary and secondary SMTP to provide email server redundancy ~assuming if you have more than 1 email server available to you). This will send emails for ALL stalled applications. Use your email client to filter down to just “Slave” prefixed stalled emails.
