How to use

Submitting a CFX job on Dardel

Important note: Due to some technical issues, only single-node computations are possible (every node has 128 cores).We are working on the problem and will update this page once we fix the problem. A script for running Ansys/CFX on Dardel called cfx_run.sh is shown below. and submit it from Dardel's login node sbatch cfx_run.sh Note that this script does not contain all the options for CFX. You may want to add more options depending on your job.
