Parallelizing simulation with a variable sweep in an analysis itself

$

Hi,

I'm using virtuoso ICADVM18.1-64b.83 and spectre 18.1.0.077.

I've set the max. jobs, in the Job-setup relatively high (28).

I've set the High-Performance Simulation Options to APS and multi-threading with manual the number of threads equal to 28 as well.

The number of available tokens is not limiting.

When sweeping a design variable in Meastro (in the Data View), the number of created jobs and thread usage is as expected.

However, when instead of sweeping a design variable in the Data View, sweeping it only in the Analysis (qpss) itself, only a single job is created and a single thread is used. How can ensure/allow that a sweep in the analysis itself is parallelized as well during simulation?

When only a single tests/analysis is ran, a window with spectre.out pops up. This doesn't pop up when there are multiple tests/analysis, is there a way to still (live) see the spectre.out for a specific analysis during a simulation with multiple tests/analysis?

Regards,

Emiel
