Job Monitor

The Autodesk® CFD Job Monitor is an external utility that tracks the Autodesk® 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 Job 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 Job Monitor

  • From the Windows® Start menu, click Autodesk > CFD 20XX > Job Monitor.
  • From Autodesk® CFD: click Setup (tab) > Simulation (panel) > Job Monitor.

To stop a running scenario

  • Right click on a scenario, and click Stop Job.
Note: The Job Monitor is not used when running in the cloud. Instead, you can use the Simulation Compute Manager to monitor solution progress.
