FSI System Coupling HPC Cluster (SLURM)
 

I have been working to try to get a FSI simulation running in our universities HPC cluster. I have the coupling.sci file, mechanical and fluent data, .py script, and submission script. I have searched through the ANSYS forums, but don't seem to find any solutions that work. The ANSYS forums are also down for this week.

Here is the error file I am met with:



Here is the submission script:



and here is the .py script:



I have tried to follow the tutorials and the user manual for system coupling, but I am lost at what else I can try.

No experience with that kind of simulation on a cluster, but I would try to go the obvious way and see what that error message is about.
Its obviously a Python error, where it expects a value as string to convert to an integer and gets an object of type 'NoneType' instead. There are many reasons that get you a NoneType object so there is no obvious hint. Look what happens on the lines prior to line 252 in _constructMachineListSLURM, there is probably some error in there. Fails to get the machine id? Something like that?


But, I assume it is not your job to fix queue-Scripts. Get help from system administrators.

Would this be in a file called _constructMachineListSLURM or in the machinelist.py file? I have actually looked in machinelist.py and it only goes up to about 180 lines.

Then I guess _constructMachineListSLURM is a function that is imported from some place else. import statements are usually placed at the top of a file, maybe you can find where it comes from.

Naive question:


How intelligent is the CLI parser? Could it be the case that the commands in run.in have to be oneliners?


It's weird that this line is printed alone in the error log:
('PARTICIPANT-2', 1.0)])
