| == Intel MPI example == | | === OpenMPI === |
|
| |
|
| As Nehalem system is a twosocket system with local attached ccNUMA memory,
| | see [[Open MPI]] |
| memory and process placmeent can be crucial.
| |
|
| |
|
| Here is an example that shows a 16 node Job, using 1 process per socket and 4 threads
| | === Intel MPI === |
| per socket and optimum NUMA placement of processes and memory.
| |
|
| |
|
| Prerequiste: Use intel MPI and best intel compiler
| | see [[Intel MPI]] |
| To setup environment for this, use this .modulerc file in your home:
| |
|
| |
|
| #%Module1.0#
| | === MVAPICH2 === |
| set version 1.0
| |
| module load compiler/intel/11.0
| |
| module load mpi/impi/intel-11.0.074-impi-3.2.0.011
| |
|
| |
|
| And compile your application using mpicc/mpif90.
| | see [[MVAPICH2]] |
|
| |
|
| First step: Batch submit to get the nodes
| | === MPI I/O === |
|
| |
|
| qsub -l nodes=16:nehalem:ppn=8,walltime=6:00:00 -I # get the 16 nodes
| | see [[MPI-IO]] |
| | |
| Second step: make a hostlist
| |
| | |
| sort -u $PBS_NODEFILE > m
| |
| | |
| Third step: make a process ring to be used by MPI later
| |
| | |
| mpdboot -n 16 -f m -r ssh
| |
| | |
| Fourth step: start MPI application
| |
| | |
| mpiexec -perhost 2 -genv I_MPI_PIN 0 -np 32 ./wrapper.sh ./yourGloriousApp
| |
| | |
| With wrapper.sh looking like this
| |
| | |
| #!/bin/bash
| |
| export KMP_AFFINITY=verbose,scatter
| |
| export OMP_NUM_THREADS=4
| |
| if [ $(expr $PMI_RANK % 2) = 0 ]
| |
| then
| |
| export GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY=0-3
| |
| numactl --preferred=0 --cpunodebind=0 $@
| |
| else
| |
| export GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY=4-7
| |
| numactl --preferred=1 --cpunodebind=1 $@
| |
| fi
| |
| | |
| | |
| Result is an application running on 16 nodes, using 32 processes spawning
| |
| 128 threads. One set of 4 therads is pinned to the one socket, the other set of 4 threads to the other socket.
