Guys
I changed the line to run the program in the script with both options
/usr/bin/time -f "%E" /opt/openmpi/bin/mpirun -v --bind-to-none -np $NSLOTS
./inverse.exe
/usr/bin/time -f "%E" /opt/openmpi/bin/mpirun -v --bind-to-socket -np $NSLOTS
./inverse.exe
but I got the same results. When I use man mpirun appears:
-bind-to-none, --bind-to-none
Do not bind processes. (Default.)
and the output of 'qconf -sp orte' is
pe_name orte
slots 9999
user_lists NONE
xuser_lists NONE
start_proc_args /bin/true
stop_proc_args /bin/true
allocation_rule $fill_up
control_slaves TRUE
job_is_first_task FALSE
urgency_slots min
accounting_summary TRUE
I don't know if the installed Open MPI was compiled with '--with-sge'. How can
i know that?
before to think in an hybrid application i was using only MPI and the program
used few processors (14). The cluster possesses 28 machines, 15 with 16 cores
and 13 with 8 cores totalizing 344 units of processing. When I submitted the
job (only MPI), the MPI processes were spread to the cores directly, for that
reason I created a new queue with 14 machines trying to gain more time. the
results were the same in both cases. In the last case i could prove that the
processes were distributed to all machines correctly.
What I must to do?
Thanks
