Hi, Yogi,

I see you are trying to run Norne with 144 processes.  Did you see the problem 
with much less processes, for example 4 or 8 processes?

In my opinion, with the current approach for domain decomposition, it can be 
challenging to run Norne with so many processes, considering the relatively 
small size of the Norne model and the long wells existing in this model.  I am 
not totally sure though.

Best Regards,
Kai Bao

Subject: [Opm] OPM Flow multi-node simulations stuck at domain decomposition 
step

All,



I am trying to run OPM Flow simulations on multiple nodes. I have built OPM 
Flow from source on Oracle Linux 7 OS (binary compatible with RHEL) with:

.        GCC-8.3.1

.        openmpi-4.0.2 (built from source)

.        boost-1.72.0 (built from source)

.        cmake-3.16.4 (built from source)

.        parmetis-4.0.3 (built from source)

.        dune-2.6.0: dune-common, dune-geometry, dune-grid, dune-istl (built 
from source)

.        Zoltan-3.83 (built from source)

.        OPM Flow modules are built using following commads:

o   cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DUSE_MPI=ON -DUSE_OPENMP=ON 
-DBLAS_LIBRARIES=/usr/lib64 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..

o   sudo make



For Norne data set, following is the input file (params) content:

ecl-deck-file-name=NORNE_ATW2013.DATA

output-dir=out_parallel

output-mode=none

output-interval=1000000

enable-opm-rst-file=false

threads-per-process=1



Simulation is being run on 4 nodes with 32 processors each using following 
command:

mpirun --display-map -mca btl self -x UCX_TLS=rc,self,sm -x 
HCOLL_ENABLE_MCAST_ALL=0 -mca coll_hcoll_enable 0 -x UCX_IB_TRAFFIC_CLASS=105 
-x UCX_IB_GID_INDEX=3 --cpu-set 
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35
 -np 144 --hostfile /etc/opt/rdma/hostfile 
/mnt/nfs-share/etc/opm-flow/opm-simulators/build/bin/flow 
--parameter-file=/mnt/nfs-share/data/norne/params



The simulation get stuck indefinitely at the domain decomposition step. I am 
able to finish a parallel run up to 3 nodes, but always getting stuck at 4 
nodes.



I have also created some customized simulation decks with about 11 million 
cells to rule-out that fewer number of cells in the Norne model may be a 
reason, but the simulation gets stuck as soon as I scale from 1 node to 2 
nodes. Can someone please help me understand, what might be causing it?



Thank you,

Yogi
