Dear FreeSurfer team,
My name is Diana Ortega, I am a Neuroscience PhD student at Universidad Politécnica of Madrid. I run a job to compute recon-all in parallel for 30 subjects remotely on a supercomputer at my research institution. This job finished due to timeout, and all subjects but one finished without errors. However, one of the subjects was not finished and it appears as if it was stuck on a loop. Its recon-all.log is constantly adding new lines (the file is 20GB in size), and from *recon-all-status.log* it appears to be stuck in the "Fix Topology" step. Have you ever encountered a similar situation? Would you know why this could have occurred? Here are the details:
FreeSurfer version: 7.1.1-centos8_x86_64 Operative System: CentOS8 Hardware: Supercomputer - 68 nodes of Lenovo ThinkSystem SD530 https://secure-web.cisco.com/1Bch1AH1AvTKzQqcdunZ0FIqTIHtdhvL6XMYZuyZxpRjtV9TB6kEZn1nh48ZtbJGIw41ngjalVrelQDieE52ynIv7RkZ7f4BZtvzTIxvrOmGmA3JirLjPRIeUkGZzhBEi_NAarb-drp-U-IpLwb1OwHc9qiofX0w5uSIqj3r6yvgPVMj00Wrwio5IAMXe7yXue7tddIlb73tamNyfvbBKIuqQ_TSHGyNsCNyd4NSVZUxvMlbsarqYSxR1oVHqb0XP2bkT1mGLxlsjaijzsxSTjw/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lenovo.com%2Fes%2Fes%2Fdata-center%2Fservers%2Fhigh-density%2FThinkSystem-SD530%2Fp%2F77XX7DSSD53 Line run for that subject: recon-all -subjid NoUMA0233 -i filepath.nii -all -qcache -parallel -openmp 16
When opening *recon-all.log*, it keeps adding the following lines:
Remesher::removeTria( 240873 ) Remesher::removeTria( 240876 ) NEXTIDX : 88755 Remesher::removeCollapsedTrias( 88755 , 120326 ) v_to_t[vidx] : Trias are identical : ... removing ...
When opening the error.log of the complete job, there are several lines of this error:
rm: No match.
Any advice will be of great help! Thanks a big lot! Best, Diana Ortega Cruz. PhD Student Laboratory for Clinical Neuroscience Centro de Tecnología Biomédica - Universidad Politécnica de Madrid
