Run a Simulation

  1. Select one or more simulation processes to run from the Simulations panel.
  2. From the Manage menu , click Run.
    My Simulations creates and runs a simulation job for each selected simulation process. If you selected more than one process, My Simulations runs the associated jobs synchronously.
  3. If the execution of a process fails, click Failed to run for more information about the failure.

Configure and Run a Simulation

  1. Select one or more simulation processes to run from the Simulations panel.
  2. From the Manage menu , click Configure and Run.
  3. From the Configure and Run options that appear, select the following:
    OptionDescription
    Domain Name Specify a Windows domain name when logging in using the extended grid credentials for a 3DOrchestrate Station.
    Windows Username and Password Specify a Windows username and password when logging in using the extended grid credentials for a 3DOrchestrate Station.
    Linux Username and Password Specify a Linux username and password when logging in using the extended grid credentials for a 3DOrchestrate Station.
    Isight V5 Username and Password Specify a username and password that allows the Isight V5 adapter to access an Isight installation.

    Note: Additional job options, such as the job title and the log level, are determined from each simulation process.

  4. Click Run to save your configuration and to run the job.
    My Simulations creates and runs a simulation job for each selected simulation process. If you selected more than one process, My Simulations runs the associated jobs synchronously.
  5. If the execution of a process fails, click Failed to run for more information about the failure.

Stop a Simulation

  1. Select one or more simulation processes to stop from the Simulations panel.
  2. From the Manage menu , click Stop.
    My Simulations stops the selected simulation processes.

Show Interactive Execution

  1. Select a simulation process from the Simulations panel that may be waiting for input.
  2. From the Manage menu , click Show Interactive.
    My Simulations opens any apps that were executed by the simulation process and are waiting for input from the user.
  3. Complete the interaction with the app, and close the app.
    The simulation process continues executing.
