Add a Remote Job Server

Add and configure an Altair PBS server to run jobs remotely.

For more information about how to install and configure a PBS server, refer to the Inspire Extrude Remote Job Submission Guide, available on the Altair Help Center.

Click the Run group label to display run options.
Select the Add Server option from the menu.
Enter the Name, Host, and Port.
Click Save.

A cloud icon appears next to the Run menu when the connection to the server has been established.
Click the Run group label and verify that the server has been added.
Set up and run an analysis using the Run Analysis window.
