Switched from POD to Local license. Scripts for job que (.sh files) don't work
 

Switched from POD to Local license. The scripts for adding a job in the cluster queue (.sh files) don't work anymore.

Until now, I used the following submit.sh file:

<\
#!/bin/sh
#PBS -N FSTD
#PBS -S /bin/sh
#PBS -j oe
#
/#directory/everybody/14.04.013/STAR-CCM+14.04.013/star/bin/starccm+ -power -podkey # -licpath #@flex.cd-adapco.com -batchsystem pbs -rsh rsh -mpi intel -np $PBS_NP >

I tried replacing it with the following:

<#directory/14.04.013/STAR-CCM+14.04.013/star/bin/starccm+ -server -rsh rsh -np $PBS_NP -batch Tutorial/Macros/meshandrun.java Tutorial/Simulations/tutorial.sim>

I used X11 to see the Command line in STAR and that's how I tried to replace the code (as seen in the attached picture)

Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Does anybody know how it should be replaced?

If all you want to do is switch from POD licensing to a license hosted (where is it being hosted) then you just change -licpath from 1999@flex.cd-adapco.com to the location of your license server.


Btw, posting your pod key onto the internet means everyone here can burn all your hours.

@LuckyTran Too bad it is expired, I guess. Thank you tho!

It didn't work changing from 1999@flex.cd-adapco.com to the directory of my local license

Not a directory... The network location. The ip address, etc.


You need to give 1999@address


The 1999 is the port the server is running on. That port number might be different for you if your network admin is running the server on a different port.


If the license is on your machine and you are trying to run this on a grid then I hope you have the license server installed and running correctly.
