You can also control the number of simultaneous jobs from the Batch Sweep node’ Settings window, in the Study Extensions section. In that case, the number of cores is automatically computed from the number of physical cores divided by the number of simultaneous jobs (for this to be automatic, you must not select the Number of cores check box).

If you are connected to a COMSOL Multiphysics server on another computer, you can control the working directory used by the COMSOL Multiphysics server if you select the Specify server directory path check box and enter the path to the server Directory or Browse for the path. Otherwise a temporary directory on the COMSOL Multiphysics server is used to save files. The server directory path refers to the location where the COMSOL Multiphysics server reads and writes the corresponding data (assuming a client-server configuration).

If the batch job has another path to the directory, you select the Specify external COMSOL batch directory path check box and enter the path to the batch Directory or Browse for the path. If the batch job has another path to the directory, you select the Specify external COMSOL batch directory path check box and enter the path to the batch Directory or Browse for the path. The external COMSOL batch directory path refers to the location where the batch process reads and writes the data.

If COMSOL Multiphysics is installed in a different directory from where the batch job runs, enable the Specify external COMSOL installation directory path and specify the install directory (click Browse or enter the path to the Directory). This can occur if you are submitting jobs to a job scheduler with the Cluster Computing node.

If the COMSOL Desktop submits a cluster job to a HPC 2008 job scheduler, where the directory where the COMSOL Desktop stores its data is a local path to the COMSOL Desktop but a network path to the cluster job, specify the main Directory and a separate external COMSOL batch directory path, respectively.

If you use a Windows client connected to a server running on a Linux server head node that in turn is submitting a job to a job scheduler, that setup then requires the main Directory (which is a local Windows path) and a server directory path (which is a Linux path on the head node). Most likely, an external COMSOL batch directory path is not needed in this case because it is likely that the cluster and the head node are using the same file system.

With a COMSOL Desktop running on a remote machine, the main Directory path refers to the COMSOL Desktop path, and the external COMSOL batch directory path refers to a remote batch job or cluster job path.

With a client-server configuration running on a remote machine, the main Directory path refers to the COMSOL Desktop path, the server directory path refers to the server path, and the external COMSOL batch directory path refers to the remote batch job or cluster job path.
