This manual provides information about managing a VOV project, including starting the server and connecting computing resources such as computers and licenses.
The Altair Accelerator products have a rich set of programs that can be run the shell command line. Each program performs a specific task
and is controlled by a set of command line parameters. The programs provide a usage command when run with an
-h parameter as a quick way to understand what each does and what parameters it takes.
Properties can be attached to any object in the vovserver. Properties are managed from the command line via the vovprop command. This command can get, set, delete, and show properties on objects.
vovmemtime is a utility to create simulated workloads. When this program runs, it occupies a specified amount of memory and
creates high CPU utilization for the requested amount of time, to simulate the activity of real design programs
running.
The Altair Accelerator allows users to collect arbitrary metrics, where a metric is defined as a "named time series" of values, where each value is either a floating point number
or a string.
Altair Accelerator supports a RESTful API that enables a developer to submit, monitor, and control batch jobs as well as query the batch
scheduler queues, jobs, and hosts in useful ways.
