Shared Network Install

The SIMULIA Execution Engine station may be installed once on a network file system and then run on many different computers.

Once the SIMULIA Execution Engine station has started, it places a small load on the file server. Because a SIMULIA Execution Engine station must reliably run for large periods of time, the file system it is using should be mounted with the NFS option hard (not soft).

If a shared disk is used to run SIMULIA Execution Engine stations with the Run-As option enabled, the file system must be mounted with the NFS option suid. This action allows the set-user-id permission on program SMAFIPplaunch to be effective.
