Using Simulation Preset Files

What is a Simulation Preset file?

A Simulation Preset file is a set of parameters that apply to a simulation check or a simulation job.

The Simulation Preset file is useful when you use same parameters for different simulations. You only have to call the Simulation Preset file, avoiding to specify all parameters.

How to create a Simulation Preset file?

To create a Simulation Preset file, use the Speos HPC Parameters (Command Lines).

In a text editor, specify the parameters to use.
Specify one parameter per line.
Name the Simulation Preset file, for example "SPEOSHPC_arg".
Save the Simulation Preset file as Linux input file (.in).

How to use a Simulation Preset file?

When editing the script file to check or submit your simulation job:

if you named the Simulation Preset file SPEOSHPC_arg.in, configure the command line as follow:
```
     ./SPEOSHPC.x -speos path/file.speos -file
```
if you named the Simulation Preset file differently, configure the command line as follows:
```
     ./SPEOSHPC.x -speos path/file.speos -file path/presetfile.in
```
