I'm running few MPI jobs (OpenMPI), how do I get the verbose outputs that are mentioned in the source code (OPAL_OUTPUT_VERBOSE). I configured using --enable-debug and I run the application using this command
mpirun -np 4 -v myapp
I also tried using --debug / -d / --mca opal_verbose_output 10 in the mpirun command but am unable to print out the verbose messages. what is the correct way that I can the verbose output.
Thanks,
kris
There is no such option opal_verbose_output for mca. You can check which value you can set using ompi_info -a or ompi_info -a | grep verbose to find the right verbose option.

I wanted to profile an MPI program and read the following code from pgprof manual.
mpirun -np 2 -host c0-0,c0-1 pgprof -o output.%h.%p.%q{OMPI_COMM_WORLD_RANK} a.out
I couldn't understand the command -host c0-0,c0-1. I checked the openMPI manual get the following.
-H, -host, --host <host1,host2,...,hostN>
List of hosts on which to invoke processes.
Ok, so the question comes down what does c0-0, c0-1 come from. I suppose it means hosts, but where does it come from and what does it mean to set it to c0-0, c0-1?
I'm trying to run elasticsearch as a daemon on a server.
I have run this command:
./bin/elasticsearch -d -p somefilename
but I can't find any proof of the daemon actually running, since ps -e | grep elastic does not produce any output. How can I see the process?
Elasticsearch runs on JVM. to see the PID of elasticsearch, you can use "jps" command.
with "ps ef" , only you can see java related process.
if you insist on using ps you can try this:
ps axms |grep -i elasticsearch
"axms" option show the details of all process.
I have installed openmpi and slurm in two nodes. i want to use slurm to run mpi jobs. When i use srun to run non-mpi jobs, everything is ok. However, i got some errors when i use salloc to run mpi jobs. Environment and codes are as follows.
Env:
slurm 17.02.1-2
mpirun (Open MPI) 2.1.0
test.sh
#!/bin/bash
MACHINEFILE="nodes.$SLURM_JOB_ID"
# Generate Machinefile for mpich such that hosts are in the same
# order as if run via srun
#
srun -l /bin/hostname | sort -n | awk '{print $2}' > $MACHINEFILE
source /home/slurm/allreduce/tf/tf-allreduce/bin/activate
mpirun -np $SLURM_NTASKS -machinefile $MACHINEFILE test
rm $MACHINEFILE
command
salloc -N2 -n2 bash test.sh
ERROR

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
An ORTE daemon has unexpectedly failed after launch and before
communicating back to mpirun. This could be caused by a number
of factors, including an inability to create a connection back
to mpirun due to a lack of common network interfaces and/or no
route found between them. Please check network connectivity
(including firewalls and network routing requirements).

Anyone can help? Thanks.
Since the beginning of November, I'm stuck in to run a parallel job in a Linux cluster. I already search A LOT on the internet searching for information but I simply can't progress. When I start to search for parallelism in R using cluster I discovered the Rmpi. It looked quite simple, but now I don't now more what to do. I have a script to send my job:
#PBS -S /bin/bash
#PBS -N ANN_residencial
#PBS -q linux.q
#PBS -l nodes=8:ppn=8
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
source /hpc/modulos/bash/R-3.3.0.sh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/hpc/nlopt-2.4.2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export CPPFLAGS='-I/hpc/nlopt-2.4.2/include '$CPPFLAGS
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/hpc/nlopt-2.4.2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
# OPENMPI 1.10 + GCC 5.3
source /hpc/modulos/bash/openmpi-1.10-gcc53.sh
mpiexec --mca orte_base_help_aggregate 0 -np 1 -hostfile ${PBS_NODEFILE} /hpc/R-3.3.0/bin/R --slave -f sunhpc_mpi.r
And this is the beginning of my R program:
library(caret)
library(Rmpi)
library(doMPI)
cl <- startMPIcluster()
registerDoMPI(cl)
So here is my questions:
1- Is this way I should initialize the processes (i.e. using starMPIcluster whitout a parameter and using at the command line -np 1)?
2- Why when I use this commands the MPI complains with it's frase?
An MPI process has executed an operation involving a call to the
"fork()" system call to create a child process....
OBS: He said that for all the 64 processes (because there are 8 nodes with 8 cpus and I'm creating 63 processes)
3- Why when I use this commands on a machine of 60 CPU's he just spawn two workers?
Finally, I got it!
To run a parallel program in R using the Rmpi in a cluster you need to configure the job script according to the system. Next on the command line:
mpiexec --mca orte_base_help_aggregate 0 -np 1 -hostfile ${PBS_NODEFILE} /hpc/R-3.3.0/bin/R --slave -f sunhpc_mpi.r
You have to modify to:
mpiexec -np NUM_PROC -hostfile ${PBS_NODEFILE} /hpc/R-3.3.0/bin/R --slave -f sunhpc_mpi.r
On the R code, you must not detail anything 'startMPIcluster()' So, the code will exactly as I wrote above.
I'm trying to run a MPI job on a cluster with torque and openmpi 1.3.2 installed and I'm always getting the following error:
"mpirun was unable to launch the specified application as it could not find an executable:
Executable: -p
Node: compute-101-10.local
while attempting to start process rank 0."
I'm using the following script to do the qsub:
#PBS -N mphello
#PBS -l walltime=0:00:30
#PBS -l nodes=compute-101-10+compute-101-15
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
mpirun -npersocket 1 -H compute-101-10,compute-101-15 /home/username/mpi_teste/mphello
Any idea why this happens?
What I want is to run 1 process in each node (compute-101-10 and compute-101-15). What am I getting wrong here?
I've already tried several combinations of the mpirun command, but either the program runs on only one node or it gives me the above error...
Thanks in advance!
The -npersocket option did not exist in OpenMPI 1.2.
The diagnostics that OpenMPI reported
mpirun was unable to launch the specified application as it could not
find an executable: Executable: -p
is exactly what mpirun in OpenMPI 1.2 would say if called with this option.
Running mpirun --version will determine which version of OpenMPI is default on the compute nodes.
The problem is that the -npersocket flag is only supported by Open MPI 1.3.2 and the cluster where I'm running my code only has Open MPI 1.2 which doesn't support that flag.
A possible way around is to use the flag -loadbalance and specify the nodes where i want the code to run with the flag -H node1,node2,node3,... like this:
mpirun -loadbalance -H node1,node2,...,nodep -np number_of_processes program_name
that way each node will run number_of_processes/p processes, where p the number of nodes where the processes will be run.
