Windows Queuing System 2.1

Description

This tool is to help users to manage the launch of PAM-STAMP simulations up to 16 CPUs/Cores with a queue in Windows up to versions 2018.0

Info

Installation

• Be administrator of your machine and switch off the User Account Control.
• Execute the ESI_Queuing-System_2.1_setup.exe attached
• Follow requirements listed in Help button (Readme) according to your platform: .NET Framework is needed: check the document to install the right one.

Use

• Run as administrator (right click on the shortcut for doing it)
• Custom the configuration file if needed, to adapt the paths, and others parameters (To find it: check the installation directory)
• Load a case, select the number of CPU, solver type: SMD or DMP (64Bit only), precision: SP or DP
• Add it in the queue
• Start the queue
• Follow the progress of your calculation
• Add others cases in the queue

Limitation

This tool is aimed to be used up to PAM-STAMP 2018.

Since PAM-STAMP 2019.0, it is needed to use Windows Queuing System 2.2. But there is a workaround which consists to replace pamcsm.exe file by the attached pamcsm.exe file in your PAM-STAMP 2019.0 installation in C:\Program Files (x86)\ESI Group\PAM-STAMP\2019.0\Binary-64Bit\Solver\bin, which will allow to still use Queuing System 2.1 with PAM-STAMP 2019.0. In same time this attached pamcsm file allows also to support Japanese characters.
