6.3 Environment Variables

Environment variables  can be set from a shell prompt with shell commands such as setenv (see the documentation of your shell) before mental ray,  ivray, or the application that mental ray is built into, is started from the same shell. Environment variables set after mental ray is started, or set from a different shell, have no effect. mental ray will work without any environment variables, except that the .rayrc startup script may not be found if MI_ROOT is undefined.
