If you would like to visualize your simulation or analysis results in a powerful computing environment, you can use the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) Analysis Portal to run ParaView on either the Stampede2 or Frontera supercomputers. The pages in this section describe how to do that.
Objectives
After you complete this segment, you should be able to:
- List the three components of the ParaView desktop application
- Demonstrate accessing ParaView through the TACC Analysis Portal
- Demonstrate specifying values in the analysis portal to request a job
- List steps to be completed before running ParaView through the TACC Analysis Portal
- Demonstrate creating or selecting a server configuration
- List the necessary steps to perform a test of ParaView in the TACC Analysis Portal
Prerequisites
To perform this exercise, you will need a TACC account to login to Stampede2 or Frontera and a computation allocation for Stampede2 or Frontera.
