--verbose
Displays extra info.
--version
Displays software version, and source control information if applicable.
--help
Displays help information about the available command-line options for the
executable.
--parameter [key]=[value]
Override a parameter (or define a new one) specified in the XML file.
--solverinfo [key]=[value]
Override a solverinfo (or define a new one) specified in the XML file.
--io-format [format]
Determines the output format for writing Nektar++ field files that are used to store,
for example, checkpoint and solution field files. The default for format is Xml, which
is an XML-based format, which is written as one file per process. If Nektar++ is
compiled with HDF5 support, then an alternative option is Hdf5, which will write one
file for all processes and can be more efficient for very large-scale parallel
jobs.
--force-output, -f
Force checkpoint files and final field files to be written, even when they exist, and
disable the creation of any backup files.
--npx [int]
When using a fully-Fourier expansion, specifies the number of processes to use in the
x-coordinate direction.
--npy [int]
When using a fully-Fourier expansion or 3D expansion with two Fourier
directions, specifies the number of processes to use in the y-coordinate
direction.
--npz [int]
When using Fourier expansions, specifies the number of processes to use in the
z-coordinate direction.
--npt [int]
When using parallel-in-time integration (Parareal driver), specifies the number of
chunks to use in the time direction.
--part-info
Prints detailed information about the generated partitioning, such as number of
elements, number of local degrees of freedom and the number of boundary degrees of
freedom.
--part-only [int]
Partition the mesh only into the specified number of partitions, write to file and exit.
This can be used to pre-partition a very large mesh on a single high-memory node,
prior to being executed on a multi-node cluster.
--use-metis
Forces the use of METIS for mesh partitioning. Requires the NEKTAR_USE_METIS
option to be set.
--use-scotch
Forces the use of Scotch for mesh partitioning. If Nektar++ is compiled with METIS
support, the default is to use METIS.
--use-hdf5-node-comm
Partition the Hdf5-format mesh in parallel to avoid one single thread runs out of
memory in serial partitioning.
--set-start-time [float]
Set the starting time of the simulation. This overwrites the time in the file-type initial
condition.
--set-start-chknumber [int]
Set the starting number of the checkpoint file. This overwrites the checkpoint number
in the file-type initial condition.
