#2174: Test "Multi Patch Scalar Wave Equation" example
Reporter:Roland Haas
Status:open
Milestone:ET_2024_11
Version:development version
Type:task
Priority:major
Component:EinsteinToolkit website

Changes (by Roland Haas):

Before each release, check that http://einsteintoolkit.org/gallery/multipatch/index.html still works and produces correct output.

Steps:

  1. download the development version of the Einstein Toolkit:
curl -kLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gridaphobe/CRL/master/GetComponents
chmod a+x GetComponents
./GetComponents https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/manifest/raw/master/einsteintoolkit.th
  1. download the parameter file fro the gallery example
cd Cactus
wget --output-document par/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.par https://bitbucket.org/llamacode/llama/raw/master/LlamaWaveToy/par/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.par
  1. compile Cactus for the system you are on (this may require that you add a cluster allocation etc.)
./utils/Scripts/MakeThornList --master thornlists/einsteintoolkit.th --output thornlists/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.th par/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.par
./simfactory/bin/sim setup-silent
./simfactory/bin/sim build --thornlist thornlists/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.th
  1. run the simulation, using number of MPI ranks similar to what is shown on the ET website, so for example
./simfactory/bin/sim create-submit Kerr-Schild_Multipole --parfile par/Kerr-Schild_Multipole.par --cores 8 --num-threads 2 --walltime 0:30:00
  1. on your laptop install VisIt using the precompiled executable available from its
