I am very curious about the possibility of decomposing a case from a determined time step
I ran my case with 30 nodes while after running of several hours, I think 30 nodes may not be the best choice.. So I hope to decompose my case again meanwhile I hope the results already obtained can be saved Is this possible or I have to configure it on a new case? |

What you can do is that you reconstruct your simulation only for the latest time step, then create a new case and initialize your fields with the results of your latest reconstructed time step. The rest is straight forward I guess... (just decompose the case with the new number of processors/nodes). |

Another solution, without setting up a new case and initializing your previous results:
1) reconstructPar your simulation as far as you want to keep your results (or -latestTime to only reconstruct the last timestep) 2) change your decomposeParDict settings 3) decomposePar -latestTime This should decompose your case with new settings while keeping your simulation results and avoiding the hazzle of setting up a new case and mapping the fields. |
