explained on the wiki

Currently you are not launching the server in reverse connection mode.
To launch the server in reverse connection mode, you need to give it
the arguments -rc (or --reverse-connection) and
--client-host=/laptop.hostname.com/. When given these arguments, the
server will immediately try to make a connection to
/laptop.hostname.com/. Thus, you first need to have your client
running and waiting for the server to connect. After getting things
set up, you should eventually try to set up your client to
automatically start the server with an ssh call and then wait for the
server to connect back.

Hi,
I would to visualize the data that is being computed on a hpc by
using pvserver and paraview.
i have come across a many documents saying how to connect and the
one what i thought might be appropriate in my case would to be to
run pvserver on the hpc and then connect to it usind server/client
reverse connection from my desktop..
here is the procedure that i use to connect to the hpc to submit job.
i log in to the head node via ssh [email protected]
i then submit my job using the the following script via qsub myscript
*#PBS
-lmem=2Gb,nodes=1:ppn=4,cput=24:00:00,walltime=24:00:00
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
cat ${PBS_NODEFILE} > node1
mpirun --machinefile ${PBS_NODEFILE} -np 4 pvserver
--use-offscreen-rendering -\
-server-port=11111 >log1
*
in the node1 file, i get say node083 (and it is repeated 4 times)
I am not sure how to connect to this node say by running paraview
from my laptop to visualize that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Regards,
vishwa
