For performance reasons, we recommend that the graphics card has at least 512 MB memory. Software rendering also supports 16-bit color graphics. The Optimize for Quality setting in the Graphics preferences requires OpenGL® 2.0. Hardware rendering requires at least 24-bit color graphics.
Windows ® users may also use DirectX® version 9 on the local console.
Comsol 5.1 for mac drivers#
Hardware rendering requires drivers that support OpenGL® version 1.4. The certification process ensures that COMSOL Multiphysics will seamlessly work for parallel processing and cluster modeling on any hardware that has also been certified as being Intel Cluster Ready.ĬOMSOL ® recommends hardware rendering for performance reasons. * COMSOL is a proud member of the Intel® Cluster Ready program and certifies COMSOL Multiphysics with every new version. The software is usually provided with your hardware.
Comsol 5.1 for mac driver#
If you are using an RDMA-capable network fabrics a DAPL 1.2 or later version compliant driver or library is required. It is recommended that OpenFabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) 1.4 or higher is installed. The Application Builder is supported in the Windows ® operating system.Īll computers in the cluster must use the same Linux ® version and should have similar hardware. Linux Standard Base (LSB) is now required for Linux on the license server computer. The version of lmgrd must be the same or higher than the FLEXnet version used by COMSOL. FLEXnet version 11.12 is used on all platforms. The system requirements for the license manager are the same as for COMSOL Multiphysics. If these requirements are not met, COMSOL crashes when accessing the help system. OpenSuSE: libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 or libwebkit-1_0-2 depending on version.
