Dear all,
I finally got some time to come back to this problem. I just want to thank
Moe and Matthieu
for their advice. I decided to implement the signal trapping in my
application to avoid
messing arround with slurm and break things. In case someone finds himself
in a similar
situation and has access to the source code of his application, here follows
some useful links:
* Sharcnet documentation: Implementing signal trapping in Fortran/C
applications with subsequent
action triggering:
https://www.sharcnet.ca/help/index.php/Signal_Handling_and_Checkpointing
* Get Remaining Time library (though i haven't tested yet):
https://github.com/chaos/libyogrt.git
or Matthieu's piece of code for that matter.
Finally about the PMI interface of Intel MPI, it is true that version
4.0.0.28 offers
the PMI interface but it seems to have some problems with SLURM. I posted
this problem
to the Intel forums some time ago and got the same advice of upgrading to
version 4.0 Update 2.
Thanks David.
Best Regards,
Domingos
