Description
Important:
This is a script template that requires site-specific customizing before you can use it to run
applications on your cluster.
This script launches a Bash shell job script to run a generic visualization application. This template
is located in the /opt/sva/samples directory. The main purpose of the script is to serve as a
template for a customized script that launches your own visualization application.
The script allocates cluster resources, launches necessary ancillary applications (for example, X
Servers and DMX), runs the application on the right nodes, and terminates the application at the
end of the session.
The script launches an application by requesting and allocating render nodes to the job. The
display takes place on the Display Surface you specify as an option, and which is specific to your
cluster. The launch script runs the worker portions of the application on the render nodes and
the master portion of the application on a display node.
