ODP: [vtkusers] Parallel rendering question

[Bober, Wojciech]

Hi Berk,

I am implementing a solution to visualise a simulation data in Grid
environment with access thru a thin client. 

Because of that I need a solution which is rather non-interactive as
I have to render off-screen. I have thought about paraview, but
running it from a batch mode wasn't clear to me.

So far my idea was to download all data into one node an render it,
but since vtk has parallel rendering capabilities I want to use
mpich-g2 and try to run it on Grid, which seems to be far better idea.

Kind regards,
Wojtek

Have you considered using paraview?
http://paraview.org

It should do what you want out-of-box.
