Results Management view

This view allows management of results data stored in the database.

The view displays a grid view of simulations in the database or in a particular run group or model group. The grid describes the simulations, and what results are currently stored. The grid can be used to re-run selected simulations, move results, remove unwanted results, or view further information. For more details on using the view, see Managing results.

There are three versions of the view:

Item Description
Grid columns

The Results Management grid contains the following columns:

Model Group: The name of the Model Group within which the simulations were carried out.

Path: Path of the Model Group within which the simulations were carried out

ID: The internal database identifier for this simulation.

Run: The name of the run within which the simulations were carried out.

Sim: The name of the simulation.

Status: The current simulation status: Pending, Complete or Failed.

Date: The date and time when the simulation was carried out.

User: The user who carried out the simulation.

Location: The location where results are stored:

  • Local Machine: results are stored in the working folder
  • Server: results are stored in the remote results root

Machine: Name of the machine of the user who carried out the simulation.

Size: Size of the results file.

Log File: Indicates whether a log file is stored in the database.

Grid context menu

Right-click anywhere in the grid to display a context menu. The menu provides the following operations, which are carried out on the selected simulations:

Delete TV results: Delete the time varying data. The simulation can be re-run to regenerate the results.

Delete simulation: Delete the entire simulation. The simulation is permanently destroyed and cannot be re-run.

Move TV results: Move the time varying data to server.

This option allows results generated on a local machine to be copied to the remote results root. The remote results root should be set up on a server where other users will have access. There are some rules governing the regeneration of results when those results have been moved:

  • If the results have been moved to the server and the data files exist on the server, regeneration will generate the files on the server.
  • If the results have been moved to the server and then deleted, regeneration will generate the files according to the location set for the run to which the simulation belongs.
  • An attempt to move simulation results when they have been deleted has no effect on location.

Re-run simulation: Re-run the simulations.

View log file: View the simulation log files.

Refresh from database: Reloads details of either the selected simulations or all simulations from the database. This option may be needed as changes to the status of simulations are not refreshed automatically.
