Ansys Electromagnetics Desktop -monitor Command Line Option for GE

The -monitor command line option enables batch job output to the standard output and standard error streams. The warning, info, and progress messages are sent to the standard output stream. The error and fatal messages are sent to the standard error stream.

The GE scheduler redirects the standard output and standard error streams of batch jobs to files specified in the qsub -o [[hostname]:]path,... and the -e [[hostname]:]path,... command line options, respectively. If either option is not specified, then the associated stream is redirected to the default file pathname.

The qsub -j y[es] | n[o] controls whether the standard output and standard error streams are merged. If the y or yes value is specified, then the standard error stream is merged into the standard output stream. If the -e host_and_path option is also specified in this case, the host_and_path setting is ignored. If the n or no value is specified, or if this option is not specified, then the standard error stream and standard output stream are not merged.

You can monitor the progress of a job by checking the standard output file for progress, info and warning messages, and checking the standard error file for error and fatal messages.
