-Star-CCM+ comes bundled with two different distributions of MPI:
-*[https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/im/mpi/index.html IBM platform MPI] is the default distribution, but does not work on [[Cedar]]'s Intel OmniPath network fabric;
-*[https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-mpi-library Intel MPI] is specified with option <tt>-mpi intel</tt>.
-Neither IBM MPI nor Intel MPI are tightly coupled with our scheduler; you must therefore tell <tt>starccm+</tt> which hosts to use by means of a file containing the list of available hosts. To produce this file, we provide the <tt>slurm_hl2hl.py</tt> script, which will output the list of hosts when called with the option <tt>--format STAR-CCM+</tt>. This list can then be written to a file and read by Star-CCM+. Also, because these distributions of MPI are not tightly integrated with our scheduler, you should use option <tt>--ntasks-per-node=1</tt> and set <tt>--cpus-per-task</tt> to use all cores as shown in the scripts.
 You will also need to set up your job environment to use your license. If you are using CD-adapco's online <i>pay-on-usage</i> server, the configuration is rather simple. If you are using an internal license server, please contact [[technical support] so that we can help you set up the access to it.
