That is because in your system you'll have to download all other input set
separately, where as the disk image already has all the input sets.

There are multiple ways to start simulation, one of them is 'start_sim' &
'stop_sim' method.  Other is modifying the code and put the 'start_sim'
like instruction in the code when you want simulation to start.  The parsec
code in disk image already has these instruction coded.  So you don't need
to run the 'start_sim' before running 'parsecmgmt' command.  Instead you
just export "PARSEC_CPU_NUM" to # of cores in your simulation and run the
'gcc-hooks' configuration.  It will switch to simulation mode when it
reaches the ROI.
