I was wondering how to generate mesh in batch mode. My meshes take a long time to generate, so I would like to use my University's supercomputer to generate them. Is there a simple line I could add to do that? Or should I run a macro in batch that generates the mesh? Any help is greatly appreciated as I am ignorant with batch mode. Thanks!

This is my current batch file to run a simulation:

# LSBATCH: User input
#!/bin/bash
# Adaptation of the automated submission from starccm+
### LSF ###
### LSF Options added automatically
### Name of job
#BSUB -J Kraft
### Set output file
#BSUB -o out3.txt
### Set error file
#BSUB -e err3.txt
### Set number of processes
#BSUB -n 20
### Set queue
#BSUB -q kimber
### Simulation File
SIM_FILE="Cubic60_2.5_uniform_fine.sim"
### Run Command
/usr/local/star-ccm_11.04.010/STAR-CCM+11.04.010-R8/star/bin/starccm+ -verbose -batchsystem lsf -batch $SIM_FILE
### Sleep. This helps ensure the STAR-CCM+ server
### has shut down before any prologue scripts kill remaining processes
sleep 30

You can run a macro if you want to or just add the command -batch mesh
