I have a Thermal/Flow model that was created on a Windows system. I would like
to run the job on a Linux system. The issue is that this is a restart solution
and the restart fails everytime stating that it cannot locate the restart
files. How can I preform a restart solution in this situation?
Solution
The restart directory is hard coded into the input file created by NX. In
order to run the restart job on a different system, either Linux or Windows,
you must edit the xml file for the restart run and change the location for the
restart files to match their current location. You are looking for a section
labled "Restart Directory". The section in question will look like this:
<Property name="Restart Directory">
<Value>E:\restart_test\model1_sim1-ColdStart-0-1200S\</Value>
</Property>
You will need to edit this line with a text editor and change it to be the
full path to the restart files on the system. For example it might look like
this on a Linux system:
<Property name="Restart Directory">
<Value>/scratch/restart_testing/model1_sim1-ColdStart-0-1200S/</Value>
</Property>
Once this change is made, the restart will proceed normally.
