External Email - Use Caution        

Hi R,

Unfortunately, those changes did not work. It looks like it might just be too 
much for my computer to handle because the entire VM system slows down 
completely when trying to run the parallel command, and after an hour nothing 
new has appeared under the command.

I will stick to 1 subject at a time if there is nothing else I can do (other 
than get a better computer!)

Thank you for your help!
Joanna

The VirtualBox settings indicate you host machine has 4 real and 4 virtual 
cores with 16G of RAM.

You could try shutting down the VM, and then change the VirtualBox settings to 
give the VM 4 cores (instead of 2) and 12G of RAM (instead of 8G).  Then start 
the VM and try running your command again to see if performance improves maybe 
first with 2 jobs and then 4.   I would try not to run other applications on 
your host machine at this time.

Oops, I meant to reply all:

Hi R ,

See below, I gave 8 GB and 2 CPU in settings.

In the VirtualBox settings, did you give the VM both cores to use?

It would also be good to know much memory your machine has, and how much of 
that you gave to the VM in the VirtualBox settings.

Dear FreeSurfer Team,

I have been trying to use the parallel command (following FreeSurfer tutorial) 
to run multiple subjects (Windows os running Ubuntu VM).

I only have 2 cores, so I have it set to 2 jobs instead of 8 as in the 
tutorial. When I use the code from the tutorial, there is an error with the 
.nii, and I assume it is because my files are .nii.gz.

developer@developer-VirtualBox:~/FreeSurfer/Cannabis_Reduced$ ls *.nii | 
parallel --jobs 3 recon-all -s {.} -i {} -all -qcache
ls: cannot access '*.nii': No such file or directory


So I changed the code to .gz with everything else the same, and FreeSurfer does 
nothing (it stalls/freezes). Is this just because my computer cannot handle the 
job? Is there anything else I can do to run parallel? If not, I can always just 
run 1 subject at a time, but I want to check and see if there is another way to 
get this to work.

Thank you for your time!
Joanna
