The SimCFDMonitor is an external utility that tracks the Autodesk® Simulation CFD analysis activity of the computers listed in the Solver Computers dialog. For each machine, the following information is provided:
- Simulations running on each Solver computer and their respective owners
- The current iteration of each simulation
- The amount of CPU resources used on each Solver computer
Use the Solution Monitor to determine when shared computers are available when running remotely.
Note: The Solver Computers dialog lists all available Solver computers. It is frequently used with
Remote Computing and HPC (High Performance Computing) to designate computers available.
To open the Solution Monitor
- From the Windows® Start menu, click Autodesk > Autodesk Simulation CFD 2014 > SimCFDServer.
- From Autodesk® Simulation CFD: click Setup (tab) > Simulation (panel) > Solution Monitor.
To stop a running scenario
- Right click on a scenario, and click Stop Job.
For an example of the Solution Monitor...
Simulation CFD 360
The Solution Monitor is not used with Autodesk® Simulation CFD 360. Instead, you can use the Simulation Job Manager to monitor solution progress.
