Specifying compute nodes for procedure calculation

Distributed calculation of individual procedures

1.  In the column Compute nodes, click the row of the desired procedure.

The icon is displayed.

2.  Click the icon.

The Select compute nodes window opens.

3.  Select the desired node for the calculation of the procedure in the list of the available compute nodes.

4.  Confirm with OK.

The compute node for this procedure is set. You can specify additional compute nodes for other procedures.

Distributed calculation of the entire procedure sequence
  • ►  Click the small black triangle of the Start procedure sequence button and select the desired entry from the list of available compute nodes.

Note: The list is displayed up to a number of five available compute nodes. If more compute nodes are available, you must make your selection in the menu Procedure sequence > Start on compute node.

The specified files are copied to the calculation server. After that, the procedure sequence is calculated and subsequently, the calculated files are downloaded. For procedures that were calculated entirely on compute nodes, you do not need a procedure step Merge procedure results to merge the data.
