When submitting an update for parallel processing, you can limit the number of solve processes that a coupling participant can use when updates are submitted to Remote Solve Manager (RSM). To do so, set the Restriction for Project / Remote Design Point Update properties for the participant's Solution cell, as described in Updating Design Points in Remote Solve Manager.
The solve process limitations are applied only to that component, and resources are otherwise allocated equally across participants. Resource allocation for the restricted participant is as follows:
If the component's Specify Number of Processes Restriction is enabled and the Number of Processes Used Not to Exceed (or Max Number of Utilized Cores) value is less than or equal to the number of processes requested by the project, then the component is limited to the component-specified number of processes.
If the component's Specify Number of Processes Restriction is enabled and the Number of Processes Used Not to Exceed (or Max Number of Utilized Cores) value is set to a value greater than the number of processes requested by the project, then the component is limited to the project-specified number of processes.
If the component's Serial Execution Only is enabled, then the component is limited to a single process.
