High Performance Computing Parameters Dialog

The HPC Parameters screen is specific to your institution. Figure 53 shows the parameters for Sandia’s cluster systems. Other than differences in the list of steps shown along the top, the same screen is used for all three data formats (Xyce, CSV, and HDF5).

Figure 53: HPC Parameters for Sandia clusters.

WCID stands for Workload Characterization ID, which is required for job submission on the clusters. Because Slycat™ uses parallel processing to speed up Time Series model creation, users are required to have obtained a WCID prior to creating a Time Series model. Your WCID is associated with an Strategic Management Unit/Program Management Unit (SMU/PMU), which is used to specify the Partition or queue-name. At Sandia, the choices are nw, ec, dsa, ihns, ldrd, cee, viz, or viz batch).
