Hi Freesurfer,
I am using mri_glmfit-sim to run Monte Carlo simulations for a ROI specific region in my data. However, running 10000 simulations seems to go beyond the time limit for launchpad. I noticed the flag "--bg njobs : divide sim into njobs and put in background" in the description but am having trouble using it. I used the following command (Stable 4):
mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir /autofs/space/ventzl_036/users/RespMon12C/group-analysis/Adam_56PatientsAndMatchedControls_Genotyped/RM_correct_error/CC_Minus_T/Monte_Carlo_LH_error_vs_correct_6sec_p01_56GroupLabel/ --bg 10jobs --sim mc-z 10000 2 mc-z.positive --sim-sign pos --overwrite
and got the following error:
(standard_in) 1: parse error nSimPerJob = while: Badly formed number.
I tried other numbers, putting a space between the number and "jobs" and adding a decimal point but everything ends with the same error. How can I use that flag to divide 10000 simulations into, say, 10 jobs with 1000 each (assuming I am understanding the purpose of the flag correctly).
Thanks,
