How to start fluent in parallel while using the batch-mode

  Hey everybody,
  I am wondering, how to start fluent in batch mode using, e.g., 8 cores from the CPU (parallel execution). I cannot find something regarding this particular topic in the User-Guide. Starting Fluent in batch mode is done (as @DrAmine told me) using the following command:
  fluent211 -gu -driver null
  After that I define the "version"
  3ddp
  However, doing so, fluent will be executed in a single process. Thank you in advance for reading and maybe giving some feedback.

  I guess I got it:
  fluent211 -gu -driver null -t11
  By the way, fluent211 is an alias of our system and is calling "fluent" actually.

  Thanks for posting the solution. 11 cores is an odd choice as that includes the host, to run on 12 cores you need -t12.
