Just to clarify, what I find attractive is the fact that with the right
setup you can literally just plug a machine into a switch on your network
and it will boot up as a rendernode with zero intervention needed. You can
get a machine to a usable state with a few minutes of taking it out of the

especially this:
Softimage 2013 switched up to Visual C++ 2010, so you need to have those
prereqs installed already for SIDeploy to work.
hope it helps.
At Triggerfish my IT guy had setup a kickstart sytem that deployed both
a Linux setup to our render nodes and a windows one to the
workstations. If you like I can find out the procedure to do it. It
did work very well, especially on the Linux side, we could build a
render node complete in

Hi Sven
We have
Is that a PXE boot-type solution Sandy? I looked into the idea a while
back, it still seems like an awesome solution for renderfarms. I'd love to
hear more.

Hi.
In my never ending quest to find a way to install Softimage
automatically and simply on all machines, I have yet again hit a road
block.
Last year, after several days of failed attempts, I resorted to
installing it manually on my machine and copying the folder on the other
machines. I
Now thinking about it... wouldn't it be good and even needed to have beside
install option on installer something like install to render nodes or
something to help out mass installation?
Even on 10 more computers is time consuming now add a 0 there or something..

For us the silent deployment install is working since a couple of versions.
