Hi all, I am running sims with houdini engine on amazon aws ec2 instances. Using Thinkbox Deadline and Usage Based Licensing. It does work, but there is a ~75% chance, the sim won’t start and throw a Segmentation Fault immediately after a message about OpenCL: 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: Rendering frame 1 to 240 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: OUT_whitewater at time 0 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: Bytes sent: 0 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: Bytes received: 0 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: Seconds taken: 0 2019-11-15 14:26:17: 0: STDOUT: ALF_PROGRESS 0% 2019-11-15 14:26:18: 0: STDOUT: No OpenCL platform has the specified device type (HOUDINI_OCL_DEVICETYPE): GPU.

So my guess is, it has something to do with the CPU OpenCL driver. The instance used here was c5.18xlarge. Here is some info on the CPUs I found on AWS for the C5 Instance type: I also asked this over at the Thinkbox Forums, but I think it is more of a houdini issue. Thanks! EDIT1: I added HOUDINI_OCL_DEVICETYPE=CPU to houdini.env. This gets rid of the Warning: No OpenCL Platform... The segmentation Fault remains though. Here is the full LOG
