Hi all,
I have setup an OPD version 1 repository for my project at:
http://hpci.latech.edu/soc/
I brief guide to installing and running is at:
http://hpci.latech.edu/soc/UserGuide.pdf
I know Mike is going through a move, so I told him I would CC this to the
list as well as him.
There are some limitations:
1) HPL and HPCC are only compiled for i686 architecture
2) They have only been tested on Fedore Core 5 and CentOS 4 ( I can not
recal if Mike had run it on RHEL 4 )
3) They are statically linked, I spent a good bit of time at the start
trying to figure out a way to build these on the users machines, but
automating that process seemed to complex so we settled for shipping
binaries. This means they won't be optimized. They are linked against the
prebuilt ATLAS linux RPM ( Linux_P4SSE2 ). We could not use GotoBLAS because
of liscensing restrictions.
4) No job manager - currently the HPL and HPCC programs are launched using
mpirun directly - I really do not like this, but I was short on time.
5) Results are not saved - I think it would be really cool to link up the
HPL or HPCC Gflops results to the 'register your cluster' page.
6) The configuration window in the Qt wizard does not resize properly
General Information:
Both HPCC and HPL both support all MPI environments that OSCAR ships (
mpich, lam, and openmpi ).
The tool is meant to be run by a regular user, which is different from most
OSCAR tools that require root.
HPL and HPCC will run using the MPI environment of the current user and it
expects switcher to report this.
I need to polish the develoepr guide I have. The program is designed so that
it can support many different benchmarks or tools. It works like OSCAR with
scripts that are triggered at different stages:
pre_configure
post_configure
execute
results
**Note**
I used OPKG v 1 , and my OPD is for version 1
