Run TUFLOW From a Batch-file: Difference between revisions

TUFLOW simulations can also be started from a batch file. Batch files are text files which contain a series of commands. Batch files allow a large degree of flexibility in starting TUFLOW simulations, advanced batch files can be used to:

 

To test the batch file it is recommended that you add an "echo" in front of the <tt>shutdown.exe /s /t 30</tt> command to ensure it is working correctly (I use this on a Windows 7 machine, but have not tested it on either XP or Windows 8).<br>

In order to restart the machine rather than power it off the /s can be replaced with /r. This can be useful when a heavily utilised modelling computer needs a restart!
