[Paraview] Using pvrenderserver and pvdataserver

Hi all,

I am trying to understand how I can use pvrenderserver and pvdataserver
instead of pvserver to handle rendering on my gpu node. This is going to be
a "Nvidia's Tesla Deskside Supercomputer" which is connected, though an
interface card/PCI Express connection, to my desktop. I have already worked
with pvserver so I know some of the basics. What I don't know is how I
should tell paraview to run pvrenderserver on the gpu and pvdataserver on
cpu?

Is it like I should run both on the rank 0 processor (its a quadcore
processor) and the processor will automatically manage to send the render
information to the gpu? Or do I need to do something more sophisticated?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mohammad
