hi,

i'm trying to create an Allrun-file for my case which i'm running in parallel mode. the cores i use vary.

one way to go would be:
cd ${0%/*} || exit 1 # Run from this directory
# Source tutorial run functions
. $WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/tools/RunFunctions
runApplication decomposePar
runParallel $(getApplication)

when i do this, OF creates log files and saves the output right there, the solver is running in the background, so i need to reload the log-file the whole time, which is annoying, and also the files can get large really quickly.
1. i don't want to save the output in a log file.
2. i want to see the calculation on my terminal as i would see it when i would run it with typing in the solver name etc.

any ideas how that can be done?

i already tried the following:
decomposePar
nProcs=$(getNumberOfProcessors)
mpirun -n "$nProcs" solvername -parallel

OF doesn't recognize "$nProcs", also tried "nProcs" and nProcs, $nProcs.
i could also type in the number of cores i use, then it works, but i want to automate stuff, therefore doesn't want to open Allrun for each case.

Thanks and regards

Looking at the RunFunctions script, you'll see that the command is actually

mpirun -np $nProcs $APP_RUN -parallel

.

Obviously you'll need to replace $APP_RUN with the name of your solver, but the rest of the command will work.

thanks,

decomposePar
nProcs=$(getNumberOfProcessors)
mpirun -np $nProcs solvername -parallel

that actually worked,

when i use the terminal i just need to type in
mpirun -n processorNumber solvername -parallel

so the only adjustment was -np instead of -n.
