Using Star-CD with the Windows Batch System
Submitting a StarCD-Job
- Open the StarCD Powershell using Start -> cd-adapco-> StarCD Powershell
- Navigate to the UNC directory which contains your CASE Files,e.g. "cd \\cifs\cluster\work\ab123456\mycase"
- type "star.exe -mpi=msmpi -msjob <numberofcores>"
This will submit a job to the Microsoft HPC Job Scheduler automatically.
Notes:
- Be sure to use the UNCPath of your network drives in step 2! (H:\ -> \\cifs\cluster\home\ab123456, W:\ -> \\cifs\cluster\work\ab123456)
- You can view the state of your job using the MIcrosoft HPC Jobmanager or type "job view "
Known limitations:
- You cannot use the StarCD Launcher GUI to submit jobs to the cluster, since it doesnot support UNC Paths as working directory!
