Abaqus/en: Difference between revisions

If your license has not been set up for a cluster then some additional configuration changes by the system administrators will need to be done.  Such changes are necessary to ensure the flex and vendor tcp ports of your abaqus server are reachable from all cluster compute nodes when jobs are run in the queue.  So we may help you get this done, open a ticket with [[Technical support|technical support]].  Please be sure to include the following three items: flexlm port number, static vendor port number, IP address of your abaqus license server.  You will then be sent a list of cluster IP addresses so your administrator can open the local server firewall to allow connections from the cluster on both ports.  Please note that a special license agreement must generally be negotiated and signed with SIMULIA before a local institutional license maybe used remotely on our hardware.  Your local abaqus license server administrator can confirm if such an agreement is in place otherwise additional costs maybe required.

Users with large memory or compute needs (and correspondingly large licenses) can use the following script to perform mpi-based computing over a arbitrary range of nodes ideally left to the scheduleexampla ar to  automatically determine.  A companion template script to perform restart multi-node jobs is not currently provided due to additional limitations when they can be used.
