Setting ports for Singularity image Paraview IndeX Nvidia NGC

Hello there,

I’m trying to use the Paraview Index container https://ngc.nvidia.com/catalog/containers/nvidia-hpcvis:paraview-index, but since my HPC system is in use by many many other individuals the default port 8080 and 11111 are often unavailable. Can you advise how I should specify a free port for using paraview with this starting command singularity run --nv docker://nvcr.io/nvidia-hpcvis/paraview-index:5.7.0-egl-pvw ?

Sincerely,
Devin Bayly

With singularity you need to run the pv version rather than pvw assuming nvidia is using the same naming convention as we do.

pvw embed Apache+Launcher+PV.

You most likely need to provide which executable you want to run such as pvserver with the proper port argument within the container.

Unfortunately, since I’m not familiar with that image, I can’t provide a direct answer to your question.
