0001461: LA: renderserver and tiled display are incompatible
Tiled-display works, and client/server/renderserver works, but they don't work together anymore. Below are the three commandlines and the ensuing errors. In this case I'm using a non-parallel build of PV 1.8, but the same problem occurs with MPI and with the CVS trunk. This worked in 1.6, and I thought it worked in 1.8 at one time, but possibly not.

This has been corrected in the CVS version of ParaView.

Now using tiled-display mode doesn't crash, but the image doesn't show on the tiles either. This is true in both client/server and client/server/renderserver modes.
e.g.:
mpirun -np 1 -H ib004 pvrenderserver -m=rshostfile -tdx=1 -tdy=1
mpirun -np 1 -H ib000 pvdataserver -m=dshostfile
mpirun -np 1 -H ib031 pvclient -r2d -crs -dsh=ib000 -rsh=ib004
                                                                                                                                                                      
and:
mpirun -np 1 -H ib004 pvserver -tdx=1 -tdy=1
mpirun -np 1 -H ib031 pvclient --server-host=ib004

I've tried vtkPVMultiDisplayRenderModule with the same results.

Actually vtkPVMultiDisplayRenderModule does work with a tiled display, but we discovered yesterday that you could not set the render module from the command line. (That has been corrected now; the --render-module argument works on the client's command line.) Now I still need to find out wht the IceTRenderModule (the default) does not work with a tiled display.

The image shows up now (main CVS tree).

Hmmm... It's still not working for me. All three processes start, but there's no picture on the wall. Besides that, client/server mode is now screwed up. I find that when using multiple tiles the first tile shows its imagein the wrong position. It has also become extremely slow.

This is all with last night's (03-Feb-2005) trunk version.

From an e-mail from Lee on 3-16-2005:

The way we left it was that it worked (got it working while you were here), but it was extremely slow. It also needs an automated test, on multiple hosts, to ensure it hasn't come back.
