How to auto-manage spectre turbo

jugemu1234

Hi,

 We have short spectre tokens in our group. So is there any specific way to run simulation in preferrably turbo mode but automatically switch to non-turbo mode when token is out of availability.

 Thanks,

  • Sorry, too busy with the day job - I don't have time to write the script - just wanted to provide you with the idea. I already explained how to make ADE pick up the wrapper script - use the cdsenv setting I mentioned:

    envSetVal("spectre.envOpts" "simExecName" 'string "/path/to/your/wrapper")

    However, a simpler solution might just be to enable license queueing:

    envSetVal("spectre.envOpts" "licQueueTimeOut" 'string "0")

    The default is to queue for licenses, but only wait 900 seconds before timing out. Setting it to 0 tells it to wait until the license is available, and not time out. This corresponds to the +lqtimeout command line option to spectre.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
