  Hi All,
  I am trying to run an single frequency HFSS simulation on an HPC and get the error "process hf3d exited with code 149". Does anyone know what the error means or where I can find out how to fix it? I was able to run this simulation on a local server without issue.
  Thank you,
  Valerie

  We need more information on this to serve you better.
  There can be multiple reasons for this error.
  Please check below points and take action accordingly.
  At what stage of simulation this error is triggered - like adaptive meshing stage, frequency sweep?
  Are you running manual HPC setup or the automatic? If you are using manual then try automatic once.
  Does your HPC machine has enough RAM?
  All the very best Praneeth.

  Hello Praneeth The error is triggered right after "Adaptive Pass #1 - Solving single frequency for adaptive meshing". The full error says that "Design:HFSSDesign1 (DrivenModal), Solving adaptive frequency ... (Domain solver), process hf3d exited with code 149."
  The HPC is automatic I believe. How would I be able to tell if I have enough RAM? I didn't see an error about the RAM.
  
  Thank you Valerie
