| Scalasca is an open-source toolset for the performance analyzes of parallel applications helping to identify optimization opportunities. It has been specifically designed for the use on large-scale systems including Cray XT/XE, but is also well-suited for small- and medium-scale HPC platforms. Scalasca supports an incremental performance-analysis procedure that integrates runtime summaries with in-depth studies of concurrent behavior via event tracing, adopting a strategy of successively refined measurement configurations. A distinctive feature is the ability to identify wait states that occur, for example, as a result of unevenly distributed workloads. |

Usage
To use Scalasca start by loading the respective software modules:
module load scalasca scorep cube
- on vulcan
Then, instrument your application using Score-P by prefixing all MPI compiler and linker commands with the scorep command:
Next analyze your application using the scalasca -analyze command with your usual mpirun command:
scalasca -analyze mpirun -n ${NP} myapp
After the run there will be a folder prefixed with "scorep_*" containing the messurment results.
The last step is to explore the generated reports by using the scalasca -examine command, with the previously created "scorep_*" folder as the experiment name:
This will open Cube with the generated report automatically if you have enabled X forwarding. You can also inspect the generated *.cubex report files, manually starting the Cube GUI:
