Deadline adds Worker instances through Monitor or Launcher controls.

The Claim

Deadline Render Farm Server allows users to explicitly add workers through the Deadline Server UI.

The Short Version

The documented interface does not match the one named in the claim. Deadline 10.4 allows Worker instances to be started or added through the Monitor, the Launcher, or the command line, but none is documented as a “Deadline Server UI.” The claim retains a limited kernel of truth because some Worker-instance controls are graphical.

Caveats

  • “Deadline Server UI” is not a documented name for the Monitor or Launcher interfaces.
  • Adding or starting a Worker instance may be machine-specific or restricted by user permissions.
  • AWS Deadline Cloud API and CLI documentation describes a separate product and does not establish a server-UI feature.
