Interactive limits on the Origin 2000 are 15 minutes of CPU time and 500 Mb for memory. All jobs that exceed these limits will be stopped, and should be submitted through the batch system. An abaqus_batch script has been written to automate the process of submitting Abaqus jobs to the batch system. All input files that run serially on a local workstation can be executed in parallel on the SGI Origin Array without any modifications. The abaqus_batch script will ask the user to define the number of processors for the Abaqus job. In general, multi-processor jobs should be limited to 2-4 processor. Choosing the correct number of processors is a function of the number of degrees of freedom (dof) within the FEA domain.. For more information on parallel jobs visit the NCSA Abaqus page (Abaqus in parallel section).
