Hello ANSYS Learning Forum, 

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently working on setting up a two-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulation for batch processing. I setup the two-way system coupling module in Workbench GUI over my local desktop. Then, I successfully exported the system coupling folder to the HPC database and created a .slurm batch file to launch the system coupling solver. However, I encountered an issue where the job terminates shortly after execution. The code for .slurm files was;

Launch system coupling
echo "Open(); Solve()" | "$EBROOTANSYS/v*/SystemCoupling/bin/systemcoupling"

I am also exploring an alternative approach. I have been able to open and read the .wbpz project file on TUI using the commands "$ runwb2 -b" and "open('/scratch/.../two_way.wbpz')" respectively. Now, I am seeking guidance on the command syntax or procedure to call and execute the system coupling within the Workbench environment.
Any assistance or insights you can provide on how to proceed from this point would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards,
Anas

Hello, 

can you try with the following command in your slurm script

$EBROOTANSYS/v*/SystemCoupling/bin/systemcoupling -R systemcoupling.py [other flags]

where the file systemcoupling.py has the following

Open()

Solve()
