Hi Ganesh,

Sig 9 usually means your job was killed by the system. Is it possible that you have exhausted the available ram or hit some artificial limit that is imposed by your batch system?

hi!

I recently installed paraview 3.12 with offscreen mesa on a SGI cluster with intel compilers and SGI MPT. Using the same version of paraview on my local computer I recorded a script in the qt version using python trace. I was able to execute the same script just fine on the cluster on a similar but larger case using pvpython. However I'm unable to use pvbatch. First off the cluster forces me to use mpirun to run pvbatch, saying that all MPI applications must be launched with mpirun. Even when I do this

mpirun -np 1 pvbatch --use-offscreen-rendering saveImage.py
MPI: MPI_COMM_WORLD rank 0 has terminated without calling MPI_Finalize()
MPI: aborting job
MPI: Received signal 9


a termination is all I get. Is something wrong the way I'm using pvbatch? I'll be working on datasets that are over 20 million cells. I hope to use multiple processors if that will help me speed up visualization. Please note that I'm not using a server. I just intend to submit the visualization as a job on the same cluster where I run the simulation.
