Remote Solver

If the optimisation is carried out on a remote calculation server, the Remote Solver can be activated in the Application Settings. Therefore, the Remote Software has to be installed on the remote computer as well as an Nvidia CUDA Driver if GPU Solving is aspired. More information regarding the installation process of the Remote Solver here.

Inside the Generative Design Solver Settings the Remote Solver can be activated. The name, the IP address and the Port information need to be entered. This information is determined by the installation of the remote software.

Furthermore, the GPU usage can be activated if one or more Nvidia Quadro GPUs are available. MSC Apex Generative Design automatically checks how many GPUs are available and will use a suitable number. More information to GPU Solving. Certainly the Complexity value can be adjusted for the Remote Solver and changed for each Scenario.

Open

After starting the optimisation, the whole calculation will run on the remote server. However, MSC Apex Generative Design has to stay active and open on the local computer in order for the calculation to continue.
