I would guess quite a few sites are using Abaqus with Slurm. I would be grateful for some pointers on the submission scripts for MPI parallel Abaqus runs. I am setting up Abaqus version 6.14-1 on a system with Slurm 16.05 and an Omnipath interconnect.
Specifically I am using this script to create the mp_host_list and to add it to the abaqus_v6.env file https://github.com/nesi/hpc-workflows/blob/master/EnvironmentSetupScripts/slurm_setup_abaqus-env.sh This just seems to go against the grain with me - Abaqus seems to be 'LSF aware' and can create mp_host_list when run with LSF. Is Abaqus not more 'slurm aware' ?? If the advice is 'use the 2016 version' then this advice will be hoisted aboard.
