Hi there,
when is it save to stop an AWS Spot Fleet?
I noticed that it can happen that all jobs on the spot fleet are finished but not all frames are downloaded (lots of Spot Fleet nodes, short rendetimes…). Can I stop the spot fleet once the renders are done or do I have to keep it running until all frames are downloaded?
Cheers, Florian
Hi Florian – this is not an official answer, but from the (very) little I know about AWS rendering, your frames could be going to the S3 storage as soon as they are rendered. So you could stop the slaves (but not the infrastructure stack). But: please do not take my word for it without testing first!
That would be my guess as well but it would be great if someone from Thinkbox could verify this.
