Hello everybody
I am new to WIEN2k, and am struggling with parallellizing calculations on our HPC cluster beyond what can be achieved using OMP. In particular, I want to execute run_lapw and/or runsp_lapw running on four identical nodes (16 cores each), parallellizing over k points (unless there's a more efficient scheme). To achieve this, I try to mimic the example from the User Guide (without the extra Alpha node), but my .machines-file does not work the way I intended. This is what I have: # dstart:g008:4 g021:4 g025:4 g028:4 lapw0:g008:4 g021:4 g025:4 g028:4 lapw1:g008:4 g021:4 g025:4 g028:4 lapw2:g008:4 g021:4 g025:4 g028:4 granularity:1 extrafine:1 The node names gxxx are read from SLURM_JOB_NODELIST in the submit script, and a couple of regular expressions generate the above lines. Afterwards, my job script does the following: srun hostname -s > slurm.hosts run_lapw -p which results in a job that idles for the entire walltime and finishes with a CPU efficiency of 0.00%. I would appreciate any help in figuring out where I've gone wrong. Best regards Christian
