One of our sysadmins here ripped 4 computers from the farm without first doing a 'rush -getoff [computernames...]'
When the job that was rendering on these nodes was dumped the frames wound up in Die state and are stuck and the job doesn't want to dump.
Is there any way to tell rush that it won't be getting a return code from the nodes and just forget about it?
Yes; the 'Down' button in irush is precisely for this purpose.
1) Click 'Frames'
2) Highlight the 'Die' frames waiting for the remotes to come back
3) Click the red 'Down' button
For more info on the irush 'Down' button, right click on it to view the help.
The equivalent command line option is 'rush -down'; for more info on that, see:
