      Hi

      I am running an unstedy Fluent simulation on HPC and trying to create an animation of particle positions via the command /solve/animate/objects create anim animate-on particle-tracks-1 storage-type hsf. It is creating the animation object but I cannot play it while I load the dat file back into Fluent. Also it is not writing any .cxa file in the dir. Is it not possible to create animations while running on HPC?

      thanks
