NAME
sva_amiravr.sh -- Runs Amira as a VR application.
Synopsis
sva_amiravr.sh [ -d display-surface ] [ --config amira_configuration_file ]
[ -p partition-name ] [ -g resolution ] [ -f ] [ -s ] [ -v ] [ -V ] [ -D ] [ -h ] [
application_command_parameters ]
Parameters
-d display-surface or
--display_surface name
Selects a Display Surface to use for the job. It also implicitly
selects the execution host for the job because each Display
Surface has a default execution host.
A Display Surface is a named display that consists of one
or more display devices with a particular orientation. Initial
configuration of the SVA creates a named single-tile
Display Surface for each display node and its associated
display device. A typical default Display Surface is
SVA_DS_1_1.
The site administrator can create additional Display
Surfaces using the Display Surface Configuration Tool.
You can also use this tool to list all the named Display
Surfaces on your cluster. This tool is documented in the
SVA System Administration Guide.
If this option is not used, a default Display Surface is used
for displaying the output in addition to the display on the
current node. The default Display Surface is determined
by settings in the Configuration Data Files, for example,
the User Configuration File. See the SVA System
Administration Guide for more information.
--config
amira_configuration_file
Specifies an AmiraVR configuration file. The default is to
generate a configuration file from the Display Surface
description
(/hptc_cluster/sva/temp/svaamiravr[slurm-jobid].cfg).
-p partition-name or
--partition partition-name
Requests resources from the SLURM partition
partition-name. The default partition is used if no
partition is named.
-g or --tile_geometry
resolution
Sets the tile geometry that each of the tiles uses. Valid
resolution values include 1280x1024, 1400x1050, and
1600x1200.
This value overrides in order of precedence,
tile_geometry values set in the User Configuration File,
for the Display Surface itself in the Display Surface
declaration section of the Site Configuration File, or for the
entire cluster by means of the SVA_CLUSTER section of
Site Configuration File.
-f or --framelock
Enables hardware multi-tile framelock on any Display
Surface for jobs.
Requires an NVIDIA framelock-capable graphics card and
the NVIDIA Quadro G-Sync option card installed.
