I want to run design of experiments scheme in optiSlang simulating multiple design points in parallel. With the license available with me 25 design points can run concurrently.

1) From the DOE properties I selected use Simultaneous execution mode.

Are you using the Free Student version or an Acaedmic version or commercial?
What licenses do you have available to you?

Thank you for your reply. I am using the Academic verison and the optimetrics license to carry out upto 200 concurrent simulations is available. I am still unable to setup the parallel simulation, any help in this regards is very appreciated.

I am running an optimization using Ansys optiSlang in Workbench. For the sensitivity analysis step I am creating a design of experiments using a sampling scheme and a number of samples. I am unable to run multiple design points in parallel for the DoE. Below is the procedure I followed:

Step 1: Select properties for the DoE.

 
Step 2: Select simultaneous execution mode and choose number of design points to be sent parallely.


Step 3: Change update option from Foreground to Remote Solve Manager


Step 4: Checking the simulation, while running shows that the design points are being sent in parallel




Step 5: All resulting designs obtained are failed designs even though the for single design point at a time all succeeded.


Since optiSlang licenses have already been purchased with capability to run 200 concurrent simulations when driven through the optiSlang DoE, Optimizer, etc. this should not be a license issue. I request you to kindly help resolve this issue. 

Thank you.

Hello agarwa20,

I think this question has been already answered here:

Maybe you test the hints that were given.

Best regards,
