<p class="MsoNormal">Are you considering creating a job template for Job Composer, or were you looking for something more substantial, such as the user submitting a web form with a field to upload the inp file?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the past at OSC we have provided some users either a job template for Job Composer (<a href="https://github.com/OSC/osc-myjobs-templates/tree/master/Basic_ABAQUS_Job_Oakley)">https://github.com/OSC/osc-myjobs-templates/tree/master/Basic_ABAQUS_Job_Oakley)</a>
or a simple OnDemand app that provides a custom interface to submit batch jobs (screenshots:
<a href="https://github.com/AweSim-OSC/batch-abaqus#screenshots)">https://github.com/AweSim-OSC/batch-abaqus#screenshots)</a>. The Job Composer template may be useful in copying to make your own. We are looking to support building custom “science gateway” style
apps in the future in Open OnDemand, but the simple OnDemand “Batch Abaqus” app example is just there to demonstrate what is possible – it would need to be updated to work with Open OnDemand.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In both of those cases, we didn’t use Abaqus to generate the batch job, like it appears you are doing with the -j option. Instead we create our own batch job script and run Abaqus in that context.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are definitely interested in building interfaces to many of these common solvers in the future.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does that help?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All, I see there has been some work done with Abaqus in regards to CAE Interactive jobs on this site ‘https://osc.github.io/ood-documentation/master/install-ihpc-apps.html’.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Has there been any work with batch submission? In our current setup we currently run a command such as this on the head node:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">$ module load simulia/abaqus<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">$ abaqus -j testjob -input test.inp -cpus 32<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The command above in turn creates a .com file and a .que file that automatically gets submitted to the cluster. The .com file is an executable and the .que file look similar to this:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">#!/bin/csh<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">#PBS -N job_test<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">#PBS -m ae<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">#PBS -V -j oe -o test.qlog<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">#PBS -l select=2:ncpus=16:mpiprocs=16<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">exit($status)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anybody have any suggestions on how we would submit batch Abaqus jobs using OOD?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wouldn’t mind just creating a .que script in OOD and submitting it to the cluster, but then I would not have the .com file. Is this something I should talk to Simulia about?<o:p></o:p></p>
