Slave Renderer — 
The Slave Renderer is a rack-mounted server that is connected directly to 
the Lustre workstation. It frees system resources by off-loading render tasks on an ‘as-needed’ 
basis, thus ensuring real-time interaction on the Lustre system.
Background Renderer — 
Background rendering frees up Lustre workstations for colour 
grading. You can use up to eight background rendering machines to process your final frames.
