Hi Hank, 

Yes this is the exact issue, I will try it out. Thanks for the tip!

Hi Michael, 


You should be able to combine the restarts with a .visit file. 


So: 
% ls */*.nek3d 
run1/f.nek3d 
run2/f.nek3d 
% ls */*.nek3d > both_runs.visit 
% cat both_runs.visit 
run1/f.nek3d 
run2/f.nek3d 


Then you can open both_runs.visit and it will append the time series together. 


(Is this the problem you were encountering?) 


Best, 
Hank

Hello, 

Is there a way to restart without having Nek save new blah.f files over existing ones, perhaps tell it the number to start with? 

Say I have run a simulation and have 50 fld files. I would like to restart from 50, but the next fld ideally should read 51, not 1. This makes it difficult to get into visit I have found when doing restarts (unless there is alternative trick to get around this?) 

Thanks for any help with this , 

Michael
