Can use realfownode locally with only a Standard license (no additional node license)?
I tried to do so in three ways (license server was running) but had no luck:
1. Using the command window: <path to realflownode.exe> <path to scene file.flw>
Message displayed:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Waiting for available license.............
2. Using the command window: <path to realflownode.exe> -local <path to scene file.flw>
Message displayed:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Usage: ((list of flags))
3. Using "Send to job manager" from the Realflow Gui
Message displayed in Job Node:
New job order received
Start simulation process...
<path to realflownode.exe> -script <path to scene directory>\jobfiles\daemons__20111120103301.rfs
RealFlow simulation process started succesfully.
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Waiting for available license.....
The Job Manager Interface says "simulating" and has shows the correct IP, but no files are created.
Is it not possible to use realfownode locally with a Standard license or have I missed something?

Hi Andrea,
If you want to work with RF nodes you need appropriate licenses. The standard license "only" includes the GUI version, but no additional nodes. It makes no difference whether you want to use RF nodes locally or within a network - the GUI version can be used on a single machine with (virtually) unlimited CPUs/cores, but for all distributed simulations you'll need node licenses.

Hi Andrea,
if you are only interested in launching a command line simulation with your GUI license, you can do it this way:
Note how it is realflow.exe instead of realflownode.exe. The extra limitation is that it will not work in conjunction with Job Manager.
if you are only interested in launching a command line simulation with your GUI license, you can do it this way:
Code: Select all
<path to realflow.exe> -nogui <path to scene file.flw>

Thanks, Alex.
I misunderstood Nodes as the new -nogui and thought that one license of Nodes is included with a Standard license.
