Instead it's detecting all 64 hardware threads and treating them as cores if I'm reading that right. I was puzzled by the OS info output too, it says: Machine#0(Backend=Linux OSName=CNK OSRelease=2.6.32-220.el6.bgq110_20120104.ppc64 OSVersion=1 HostName=R00-ID-J04.i2b.cetus Architecture=) cpuset 0xf...f complete 0xffffffff,0xffffffff online 0xf...f allowed 0xf...f nodeset 0x0 completeN 0x0 allowedN 0xf...f However, looking at the (open) source code for the CNK [1] (at least for BG/P) the uname info seems to be derived from the I/O nodes when its running in CIOD mode, so I suspect that's what's happening here (looks like a RHEL6 derived kernel from that). > I can't run hwloc-gather-topology.sh on the compute nodes since its > a script, but I can run it on the front end node. For those unfamiliar with BlueGene (at least P, and I suspect the same is true for Q), this is because the CNK doesn't implement fork() or execve(), they're designed to start your code and just keep running it until it dies.
