### 2.6.3. Monitoring a Run in Progress

Each ANSYS Multi-field run launched from the CFX-Solver Manager or the `cfx5solve` command line creates a temporary CFX working directory with the name `run_name`.dir, even if the MFX Run Mode is set to `Start ANSYS only`. For details, see Directory Structure. If a run is already in progress when the CFX-Solver Manager is opened, it can be monitored by selecting this directory as the run directory. The process is just the same as for ordinary CFX-Solver runs:

1. Select File > Monitor Run in Progress.

   The Select a Run Directory (.dir) dialog box is displayed.

2. Browse to the directory containing the current run.

3. Select the current run.

4. Click OK.
