Thinkbox Deadline Renderfarm

Question

I have recently started working with Deadline Renderfarm. I am currently using Deadline Python API to extract Jobs and Tasks information. One query I had is that does deadline stores the logs for each task within the deadline10db MongoDB database or does it store somewhere within Deadline10Repository? If it store the worker logs for a task within the database which collection does it store it into and if it stores the logs somewhere within a file is there any configuration changes that can do so that these logs are saved within the database as well.

Full details on Deadline 10 log storage is avialable in the documentation at https://docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/products/deadline/10.3/1_User%20Manual/manual/logs.html. The logs are stored as text files and logging settings can be managed as part of repository configuration.

If you're starting out on a new render farm you may also want to take a look at the recently launched AWS Deadline Cloud service that provides a fully managed render farm. https://aws.amazon.com/deadline-cloud/.  Logs in AWS Deadline Cloud are stored in your account in CloudWatch Logs.
