Just wondering if anyone has tried to run EnergyPlus simulations in parallel in Azure Batch?
If so, are there any tips or tricks that helped you keep it going along?
I have so far figured out how to add E+ as an application and invoke it via a Task in Batch. I get this error, however:

As you can see, it seems to look for Missing C:\EnergyPlusV8-1-0\Energy+.idd, which would not exist in this context... Has anyone run into this before?
