[Paraview-developers] [EXTERNAL] Possible bug in ParaView 5.4.1 with client/server operation

[Scott, W Alan]

Dave,

I'm currently at home, but it wasn't hard.  Just run some version of the following:


MPI-Magic-For-Run 16 cores-processes .../pvbatch  --off-screen-rendering /fullPath/manyspheres.py


If you can't replicate this, when I am at work I will replicate and write a bug.


Alan

Yes it should work in batch. Batch is the only practical way to do significant parameter sweeps.

This is the first time I've heard of it not working. What steps are needed to replicate the problem guys?

I tried this, and it worked local server.  Remote server failed.  Shouldn't manyspheres work with pvbatch?
