This tutorial steps you through process of configuring Remote Solve Manager (RSM) to use a "custom" Linux cluster using the client-side integration technique.
Client-side integration means that the client is able to communicate directly with the HPC resource using SSH or a custom communication method.
Use this tutorial only if your environment has restrictions on the installation of RSM services, and the cluster is an unsupported cluster type (that is, not a standard ARC/MS HPC/LSF/PBS/UGE cluster type).
If you have a similar but less restrictive setup, use the method listed for your particular case below:
You can install RSM services and transfer files using RSM's internal file transfer method or network file shares like Linux Samba or Windows shares on your unsupported cluster type. Use the cluster-side integration method. For more information see Customizing Cluster-Side Integration in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide and/or the tutorial Configuring Custom Cluster-Side Integration.
You cannot install RSM services but are using SSH to communicate with a supported Linux cluster type. Use the standard SSH setup, as described in Configuring RSM to Use SSH for Job Submission and/or File Transfers to a Remote Linux Cluster in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide.
The only special requirement for file transfers is SCP via SSH for transfers to a supported Linux cluster type. Use the standard SSH setup, as described in Configuring RSM to Use SSH for Job Submission and/or File Transfers to a Remote Linux Cluster in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide.
This tutorial is not meant to replace the content in the user’s guide. For more information on custom integration, see Custom Cluster Integration Setup in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide.
If this scenario does not suit your needs, see the other Remote Solve Manager R2024 R2 Tutorials.
You can follow this tutorial while actually configuring RSM. To do so, simply make the selections that are pertinent to you or insert your specific information where noted.
Once you have tested your configuration, you can submit a Fluent, CFX, or Mechanical job to RSM.
