Network Rendering slave GPU time out

[p3taotoy]

When I run the run_installed_daemon.bat  network slave (after installing the _instal_daemon)
I get :

"detected that render node is hanging during startup -> render stopped"
(The slave is a laptop running an occulink GPU that renders fine on the standalone and has given me no errors, and the gpu shows up fine in the device manager etc.
I went into the regedit and changed the graphicsDrivers TdrDelay to 240 (which is 4 minutes)
When running the run_installed_daemon.bat it takes about 2 muntes or less for the gpu to show up, so giving it 4 minutes should be plenty.

Does the bat file read the TdrDelay regedit info? .... as it gives its "detected that render node is hanging during startup -> render stopped" before a minute is up.

Firewalls have been opened for all apps and servers (though I do not think that's it because it quits before finding the gpu

Any ideas?

Peter


2026.2 for both master and slave just in case you are wondering

Hi Peter,

Could you try with version 2025.4 and report back?

I will try that Beppe

What I am in the middle of is rebuilding that system. (Backing up first :>)

It is the one I was having trouble with earlier, that would not run 2026.2 (only the 2025 and Alpha 2026.1)

I started form scratch on. a diff computer and have had no issues running 2026.2.... Soooooo I suspect that it could be the laptop itself.

Once backed up and rclean einstalled etc I will try the 2026 render node version... and if no liuck I will then try the 2025 one you suggested.

Thanks as always... you are a one man Octane render savior.

Aafter a reset on the machine I am up and running with 2026.2 network... and can now run the full 2026.2 standalone.... so clearly there was a gremlin in my overall system I just could not find.
All good

Thanks mate
