I set the temp directory to be in a scratch folder where I have plenty of disk space by specifying the variable &#8216;tempdirectory&#8217; in my batch.cfg file. For most simulations, the temp files appear in the specified directory. However, when I run frequency sweeps, temp files appear in (my home folder on the cluster)\/Ansoft\/.temp. My home folder is limited to a small amount of space, so it fills up and the simulation fails. I found this post \/forum\/forums\/topic\/how-to-fix-discrete-sweep-failing-with-unexpected-failure\/ and I wonder if the problem is related to that mentioned in the last comment &ndash; I am also using discrete frequency sweeps &ndash; but the temp directory I specify does not have any spaces or special characters in the name, only numbers, letters, and \/ to specify the path. How can I redirect all the temp files to my specified temp directory?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-306224","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-frequency-sweep-1","topic-tag-hfss","topic-tag-hpc-cluster-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["23296","2937"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.52.43.81"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["1941"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["306224"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27793"],"_bbp_engagement":["2937","23296"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["307685"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["307685"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-09-20 15:17:44"]},"test":"sarah-stevensoncolorado-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/306224","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/306224\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=306224"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
