Hi,
I've built Paraview servers on Mac OS X (10.5.6 intel x86_64) with
PARAVIEW_USE_MPI=ON.
I'm going to run the servers on a MacPro with 8 CPUs and with a single
graphics card.
I understand that
% mpirun -np 8 pvserver
is meaningful for data processing since it will be done in parallel
using 8 C
Hi Shigenobu,
I'd recommend using simple client-server and turning off remote
rendering from the Preferences -> Render View -> Server. This should
give you the same result without the complication of the render
server. Making use of multiple cores when there is only one graphics
card is a research
Hi Berk,
Thank you for the information. It looks fine for my current purpose.
But, I think I haven't yet understood how pvrenderserver works in
parallel. Does it still use MPI?; for example, if I had multiple
graphics cards, say 4 cards, should I do like this?:
% mpirun -np 8 pvdataserver
% mpiru

The render server uses mpi as well. Its main use is to support compute
