Additional settings that affect the job queue can be found in the GeoDict menu bar under Settings → Settings → Job Queue.

Projects Directory

Since the projects folder contains all simulation files for jobs on the server, a huge amount of data may be stored in it. Therefore, you can choose a different location for this folder. Click Browse and navigate to a folder of your choice. All data and computational results from jobs will then be stored in this folder.

If the job queue server is started from the command line, you must always specify a location in the option --job-server=<project folder>.

Max. Parallel Jobs

With the Max. Parallel Jobs setting, the server administrator can control the maximum number of jobs that the Job Queue Server can process simultaneously. The number of threads used per job is computed by dividing the number of available threads for the server machine's hardware by the Max. Parallel Jobs setting. For example, for a server machine with 20 CPU cores and a setting of 4 Max. Parallel Jobs, each job will use 5 threads. The default value of 1 results in the server processing the jobs sequentially.
