ing
After you have configured the Master Station and the slave rendering machine
to communicate, you must:
■ Configure the “HostName string=” keyword with the slave rendering
machine IP address in the Slave Renderer section of the init.config file. See

Configuring Lustre Background Rendering
About Background Rendering
During background rendering, a shot on the timeline is rendered by a
background rendering network. This is different from the Slave Renderer,
which renders shots on a shot-by-shot basis as they are colour graded to enable
improved playback performance.
Background rendering in Lustre is performed using Burn
™
for Lustre, also
known as the Lustre Background Renderer. This application is specific to Lustre
and provides asynchronous background processing of Lustre render jobs. By
off-loading rendering activities to remote Linux
®
servers, Lustre stations are
freed up for interactive colour grading, while background rendering is sped
up by splitting the task amongst multiple hosts.
