  Hi,
  Can you please provide syntax for running simulations on Linux without GUI?

  I actually followed it.
  My command is as follows
  In the lumerical directory ./interconnect -hide -run fullpath.lsf -use-solve fullpath.icp
  fullpath corresponds to the path of lsf and icp files
  This still shows error corresponding to GUI license.
  -use-solve is supposed to use the solver license according to the support page.

  Notes: Running the script.lsf from the terminal will always require a GUI/graphical connection to the Linux machine. The -hide option only hides the display from appearing -- it will still require a GUI/graphical connection to the Linux machine (i.e VNC or Xforwarding). The -use-solve option will require additional solve license = 2 lum_interconnect_solve licenses will be checked out. Try:
  ./interconnect -hide -run fullpath.lsf -use-solve

  I have additional solve license but only 1 GUI license.
  Is there any way to run interconnect without using GUI license?

  Sorry, the -use-solve feature is currently supported on FDTD not INTERCONNECT.
