Core count error Answered
Hello,
I am using the 10 free core hours for now to test my simulations but when I use the batch controller it says that there is a certain limit to the core count and i tried changing it in the CH under the account but it does not work for me, what do i do?

Hi there,
Free accounts have certain limitations to the number of cores available. Could you please attach the error message you are receiving so we can check this is correct.

Hi,
This is correct. Free and Team accounts are limited to 64 cores. Enterprize accounts have access to 2000 cores. For info on the different plans see here.

Hello,
Thanks! I was confused of how they are different from Core hours since the core hours needed are below one but core count gives an error? Would $8/hr give me more capacity and how much would I need then?
If you have a free package then you have access to 64 'cores' (Core Processing Units). A free account has 10 core-hours to spend which means you can use 1 CPU for 10 hours or 2 CPUs for 5 hours etc. Core-hours are a measurement of computational time. If you are running a large batch that requires 178 cores, this will not work due to the limitations on a Free account. What you can do is split the large batch up into smaller batches so you are only using 64 cores at a time.
Does this make sense?
