You have found what we found (also in other areas of OpenMPI) that Slurm has some interesting behaviors.
If it was easy, anyone could do it Ken ========================== Kenneth A. Lloyd, Jr. CEO - Director, Systems Science Watt Systems Technologies Inc. From: hwloc-users [mailto:hwloc-users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Brice Goglin Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2014 7:01 AM To: Craig Kapfer; Hardware locality user list Subject: Re: [hwloc-users] node configuration differs form hardware Le 28/05/2014 14:57, Craig Kapfer a écrit : Hmm ... the slurm config defines that all nodes have 4 sockets with 16 cores per socket (which corresponds to the hardware--all nodes are the same). Slurm node config is as follows: NodeName=n[001-008] RealMemory=258452 Sockets=4 CoresPerSocket=16 ThreadsPerCore=1 State=UNKNOWN Port=[17001-17008] But we get this error--so I suspect it's a parsing error on the slurm side? No, it's slurm properly reading info from hwloc, but that info doesn't match the actual hardware because the BIOS is buggy. Brice
