Dear PWSCF Users, I am using QE-ver 4.0.3 on my cluster. I submitted one job from the the 2nd node (I call the head node as the 1st node). This job used 40CPUs, with the distribution being 5 nodes (nodes #3 to #9, and 6CPUs/node) and 1 node (node #10, and 4CPUs/node). When I used 'top' command on node#2 to see the jobs listing, memory uses,...I usually saw lines of 'nsfd' appear on the 'Command' column. What 'nsfd' means?
The reason I have this question is that the machine is usually slower (i.e. hangs up for 20 seconds or more) if I submit a 2nd job from node#2, but use other nodes (say nodes #11 to 17). Having this 2nd job running at the same time with the 1st job, I saw more 'nsfd' lines appear, and the machine is slower. I appreciate if you could explain to me what "nsfd" means. Thank you, Trinh Vo HCCP Group Jet Propulsion Laboratory/CalTech -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
