This section describes the concept of the client-server architecture used in STAR-CCM+. This architecture lets you start a simulation running, disconnect the client from the running server, and then connect again at a later time. This is useful for saving resources on your machine by shutting down the client while you continue working with the server continuing to solve your problem. You can also load a simulation without starting the client.
Detailed information is also provided about running the client in batch, using batch management systems and the server processes manager.
