Running Fusion on Amazon Cloud (AWS)

PostFri Sep 16, 2016 12:11 pm

Hi All

I'm trying to install Fusion on a virtual machine on EC2 (Amazon Cloud Service) but I'm not having any luck.

I haven't tried any Linux machines but Fusion simply crashes on the Windows machines (Windows Server 2012R2 and 2008R2) I've also tried the Otoy Cloud Workstation with all the correct graphic card drivers but still no luck!

Fusion starts to load and passes the splash screen, shows the interface but crashes before the viewers can load.

If anybody has any advice it would be greatly appreciated!

Regards,

g2.2xlarge (G2 Instances are backed by 1 x NVIDIA GRID GPU (Kepler GK104) and 8 x hardware hyperthreads from an Intel Xeon E5-2670)
vCPU: 8
RAM: 15GB
Storage: 60GB SSD

I've tried some other instances too but none worked.

Update:

I tried running:

"c:\Program Files\Blackmagic Design\Fusion 8\FuScript.exe"
"c:\Program Files\Blackmagic Design\Fusion 8\Fusion.exe"
"c:\Program Files\Blackmagic Design\Fusion 8\FusionServer.exe"
"c:\Program Files\Blackmagic Design\Fusion 8\QTServer\FusionQTServer.exe"

In Compatibility Mode but still no luck...
