How to get a Job ID
...
The ID of a render job can be obtained in two ways. Either upon submission, through а command line interface, or from the Chaos Cloud's URL of the web interface when the Job Details page is open, as shown in the example below.
Credit Limit
...
The cost for rendering a job can be limited by using the Job Credit Limit setting in the submission step.
UI Text Box | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
Job credit limit is available only for still images. |
The button resides in the Submit Job window. You can disable it by setting it to 0, so that the job does not have a limit in credits and continues until it meets some of its other completion criteria. This option is available when cloning a job, too.
Once the credit limit is reached, the job is paused and you get notified via email. In the Job Details panel you get a notification that the Job credit limit is reached. You can increase the credit limit and resume the render.
For old jobs submitted by old client app, the credit limit is displayed in the Portal as N/A.
While the job is pausing when the credit limit is reached, there is still utilization tracking process going on, so the final job credits might exceed the limit with a bit.
