HFSS15: Example for Setting a Host Dependent Default Value

For this example, we assume that all hosts have two cores, except for three hosts, bighost1, bighost2, and bighost3, that have eight cores each. Because most hosts have two cores, the administrator has set the Hfss/Preferences/NumberOfProcessorsDistributed option value to 2 in the installation default config file, as described above. The administrator may then set the Hfss/Preferences/NumberOfProcessorsDistributed option value to 8 in the host dependent default config files for the three hosts having 8 cores, bighost1, bighost2 and bighost3. The user may login to host bighost1, and run the following command to change this setting for the host dependent default options config file for host bighost1 on HFSS 14.0:

UpdateRegistry -Set -ProductName HFSS14.0
-RegistryKey Hfss/Preferences/NumberOfProcessorsDistributed
-RegistryValue 8
-RegistryLevel install_machine

To make this change for the other two hosts, the adminstrator would login to bighost2 and bighost3, in turn, and run the same command on each of those hosts.
