Introduction

Usage

First load the needed software module:

module load performance/extrae


Then create a configuration file for the extrae run. Commented templates can be found under $EXTRAE_HOME/share/example.

Now set up the environment for the run.

export LD_PRELOAD=$EXTRAE_HOME/lib/libmpitrace.so
export EXTRAE_CONFIG_FILE=extrae.xml

Finally run your application as usual. This will generate the needed tracefiles.

mpi2prv -f TRACE.mpits -o output.prv
