Is there a script command on mac osx to start up a render node? What I'm really trying to do logically is to set a render to automatically restart if the node fails. I'm having a lot of problems with more than one node not being able to run at a time. And until I can trouble shoot the exact problem, I was hoping to get my render done with something like this:

Run this script on a crontab every minute:

Search the RCF file for: "Error Stopped"

if it reads that, then rewrite the RCF file as:

After Effects 8.0v1 Render Control File
    max_machines=16
    num_machines=0
    init=0
    html_init=0
    html_name=""

(have to restart the watch at this point, so probably need to shutdown aftereffects)

restart aftereffects and start watch folder again...

HELP?!
