The MPICH library that I have been trying claims to have a "BSD Like" license (http://git.mpich.org/mpich.git/blob/HEAD:/COPYRIGHT). I am aware that OpenMPI which uses BSD license is currently used in our application. I had chosen to start investigating MPICH because it claims to be a highly portable and high quality implementation of latest MPI standard, suitable to cloud based clusters. If anyone could please advise on the acceptance of the MPICH libraries MSD Like license for ASF, that would help. Thank you.

The problem was with the iptables had some conflicting rules which blocked the traffic. It was resolved by simple iptables flush. Here is the test MPI program running on multiple machines:- [centos@mesos-slave-1 ~]$ mpiexec -f machinefile -n 2 ./mpitest Hello world! I am process number: 0 on host mesos-slave-1 Hello world! I am process number: 1 on host mesos-slave-2 The next step is to try invoking this through framework like Marathon. However, the job submission still does not run through Marathon. It seems to gets stuck in the 'waiting' state forever (For example http://149.165.170.245:8080/ui/#/apps/%2Fmaw-try). Further, I notice that Marathon is listed under 'inactive frameworks' in mesos dashboard (http://149.165.171.33:5050/#/frameworks). I am trying to get this working, though any help/ clues with this would be really helpful.

I followed their installation guide to install the libraries on the master and slave nodes of the mesos cluster. The approach that I am trying out here is that I am equipping the underlying nodes with MPI handling tools and then use the Mesos framework like Marathon/ Aurora to submit jobs to run MPI programs by invoking these tools. You can potentially run an MPI program using mpiexec in the following manner:- # mpiexec -f machinefile -n 2 ./mpitest machinefile -> File which contains an inventory of machines to run the program on and number of processes on each machine. mpitest -> MPI program compiled in C using mpicc compiler. The program returns the process number and he hostname of the machine running the process. -n option indicates number of processes that it needs to spawn Example of machinefile contents:- # Entries in the format <hostname/IP>:<number of processes> mesos-slave-1:1 mesos-slave-2:1 The reason for choosing slaves is that Mesos runs the jobs on slaves, managed by 'agents' pertaining to the slaves. Output of the program with '-n 1':- # mpiexec -f machinefile -n 1 ./mpitest Hello world! I am process number: 0 on host mesos-slave-1 But when I try for '-n 2', I am hitting the following error:- # mpiexec -f machinefile -n 2 ./mpitest [proxy:0:1@mesos-slave-2] HYDU_sock_connect (/home/centos/mpich-3.2/src/pm/hydra/utils/sock/sock.c:172): unable to connect from "mesos-slave-2" to "mesos-slave-1" (No route to host) [proxy:0:1@mesos-slave-2] main (/home/centos/mpich-3.2/src/pm/hydra/pm/pmiserv/pmip.c:189): unable to connect to server mesos-slave-1 at port 44788 (check for firewalls!) It seems to not allow the program execution due to network traffic being blocked. I checked security groups in scigap openstack for mesos-slave-1, mesos-slave-2 nodes and it is set to 'wideopen' policy. Furthermore, I tried adding explicit rules to the policies to allow all TCP and UDP (Currently I am not sure what protocol is used underneath), even then it continues throwing this error. Any clues, suggestions, comments about the error or approach as a whole would be helpful. Thanks and Regards, Mangirish Wagle Error! Filename not specified.

I am currently evaluating MPICH (http://www.mpich.org/about/overview/) to be used for launching MPI jobs on top of mesos. MPICH version 1.2 supports Mesos based MPI scheduling. I have been also trying to submit jobs to the cluster through Marathon. However, in either cases I am currently facing issues which I am working to get resolved. I am compiling my notes into the following google doc. You may please review and let me know your comments, suggestions. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p_Y4Zd4I4lgt264IHspXJli3la25y6bcPcmrTD6nR8g/edit?usp=sharing Thanks and Regards, Mangirish Wagle Error!

I will share with you with the cluster details in a separate email. Kindly note that there are 3 masters & 2 slaves in this cluster. I am also working on automating this process for Jetstream (similar to Shameera’s ansible script for EC2) and when that is ready, we can create clusters or add/remove slave machines from the cluster.

Some of the options that I am looking at are:- MPI support framework bundled with Mesos Apache Aurora Marathon Chronos Some of the evaluation criteria that I am planning to base my investigation are:- Ease of setup Documentation Reliability features like HA Scaling and Fault recovery Performance Community Support Gourav and Shameera are working on ansible based automation to spin up a mesos based cluster and I am planning to use it to setup a cluster for experimentation.
