This tutorial steps you through process of configuring Remote Solve Manager (RSM) to use a "custom" Linux cluster using the cluster-side integration technique.
Cluster-side integration means that you are running in non-SSH mode.
Use this only if your cluster has one or more of the following customization requirements:
You need to run some additional custom code or make command line modifications that cannot be easily accomplished through the load scheduler or the RSM application.
The cluster has a customized interface so that the built-in default command line commands are not accepted.
You are not using a supported load scheduler (LSF, PBS Pro, Altair Grid Engine, or Microsoft HPC) but you have an open source cluster or a proprietary cluster that you want to integrate.
If your cluster does not have any of the above requirements, use the standard cluster setups, as they are easier to configure and support. For more information, see the following chapters in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide:
If your requirements are even stricter than those noted above, such as running an unsupported OS, or using proprietary file transfer methods, refer to Customizing Client-Side Integration in the Remote Solve Manager User's Guide and/or Configuring Custom Client-Side Integration in this tutorial book.
This tutorial is not meant to replace the content in the user’s guide. For more information on custom integration, see RSM Custom Integration 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 follow the steps for submitting a Workbench, Fluent, CFX, or Mechanical job to RSM.
This tutorial is broken into the following steps:
