Blender

Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software tool set.

Connect to the Graphical User Interface using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).

If you are using Linux you can also open an X11 connection to the login machine:

ssh -X name.surname@login.hpc.unipr.it

Example of srun command to run Blender 4.3.2 on 1 node of the gpu partition using 6 cores and at most 80 GB of memory:

srun \
    --job-name=blender \
    --nodes=1 \
    --ntasks-per-node=1 \
    --cpus-per-task=6 \
    --mem=80G \
    --partition=gpu \
    --qos=gpu \
    --gres=gpu:p100:1 \
    --time=0-01:00:00 \
    --pty \
    --x11 \
    bash

Once you have accessed the required resources with srun, run the commands:

module load apptainer
module load blender/4.3.2
blender.sh
