Massimiliano Guarna

Good morning, i need to support you because my job create tto many restart file. I submit one job with radioss block 2019.It is one full crash side impact with pole. I ask animation every 5 ms and total time of simulation is 140 ms. I define this card into engine file /RFILE/2 15000 So i wolud like create two file restart and update this file wvery 15000 cycle. I used 112 cpu and radioss create 112 file restart with 200 Mbyte and i believe that my job create 112*28 file of the restart. they are too many. Why ? thank you

Hi

If you are using n=2

Engine run would create 112 (domains) times 2 (n)  = 112 *2 = 224 *.rst's 

and Starter run would create 112 *.rst's.

So total 336

 

That would be some like

1) Starter:

filename_0000_0001.rst

...

filename_0000_0112.rst

 

2) Engine:

filename_0001_0001_I.rst

filename_0001_0001_J.rst

filename_0001_0002_I.rst

filename_0001_0002_J.rst

...

filename_0001_0112_I.rst

filename_0001_0112_J.rst

 

If you are running on cluster, please check if it is not listing as well any scratch or temp space files.

 

I hope this is helpful

Regards
