Hi Jonas,

you also need to disable propagation in the root node to derive only cuts
that do not cut off any feasible solution. This is done by "set
propagating maxroundsroot 0" in the interactive shell or the parameter
"propagating/maxroundsroot = 0". This only works for solving your subscip
until the end of the root node.

But, can you explain the idea behind only separating your sub-problem(s)
without solving them to optimality?

Best, Michael
