Comsol in Triton is best run in `Batch-mode <https://www.comsol.com/blogs/how-to-run-simulations-in-batch-mode-from-the-command-line/>`_, i.e. without the graphical userinterface. Prepare your models on your workstation and bring the ready-to-run models to triton. For detailed tutorials from COMSOL, see for example the Comsol Knowledge base articles `Running COMSOL® in parallel on clusters <https://www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1001>`_ and `Running parametric sweeps, batch sweeps, and cluster sweeps from the command line <https://www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1250>`_. However, various settings must be edited in the graphical user interface.

However, if you use this terminal to start COMSOL, it will be running on the login node, which is a shared resource, and you should be careful not to use too much memory or CPUs.
