Tips and Best Practices

  • Always check the .log file after each run. It contains essential diagnostic information and any warning messages from the solver.
  • Redirect your solver’s output to a log file for easier review:
    mpirun -np 4 ngpb --prmfile options.prm > run.log 2>&1
    
  • For heavy simulations, make sure your system has enough memory and CPU resources for the number of MPI processes you’re using.
