If multiple job-files are specified or a job-file contains multiple simulation runs (i.e., multiple cycles and/or loadings) these simulations are executed in parallel. ### General Notes - The order in which the arguments are provided is arbitrary. - If a file path includes space characters (e.g. "C:\\VECTO Test Files\\Demo.vecto") then double quotes have to be used (as in the picture above). - If not the complete file path is defined (e.g. "file1.vecto" instead of "c:\\data\\file1.vecto") then VECTO expects the file in the application directory (where vectocmd.exe is located). +- `ams` command arguments are not arbitrary and should follow the order specified. +- To avoid confirmation for running the simulation in `ams` command prepend yes or no to the tool execution as follows: `"yes"|vectocmd.exe [ARGUMENTS]` ### Basic usage - vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] FILE1.(vecto|xml) [FILE2.(vecto|xml) ...] + vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] [-q] FILE1.(vecto|xml) [FILE2.(vecto|xml) ...] + vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] [-q] -ams PREVIOUS_STEP.xml CURRENT_STEP.xml OUTPUT.xml ### List of command line arguments - FILE1.vecto [FILE2.vecto ...]: A list of vecto-job files (with the extension: .vecto).
