Re: [slurm-dev] Re: number of processes in slurm job Hi Husen.
Are you compiled OpenMPI with Slurm?? Indicate for example –with-slurm and –with-pmi ¿? I use OpenMPI and Works fine without indicated mpi procs into my batch file. *De:* Husen R [mailto:hus...@gmail.com] *Enviado el:* martes, 12 de julio de 2016 9:41 *Para:* slurm-dev <slurm-dev@schedmd.com> *Asunto:* [slurm-dev] Re: number of processes in slurm job On Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 2:24 PM, Loris Bennett <loris.benn...@fu-berlin.de> wrote: Husen R <hus...@gmail.com> writes: > Re: [slurm-dev] Re: number of processes in slurm job > > Hi, > > Thanks for your reply ! > > I use this sbatch script > > #!/bin/bash > #SBATCH -J mm6kn2_03 > #SBATCH -o 6kn203-%j.out > #SBATCH -A necis > #SBATCH -N 3 > #SBATCH -n 16 > #SBATCH --time=05:30:00 > > mpirun ./mm.o 6000 You need to tell 'mpirun' how many processes to start. If you do not, probably all cores available will be used. So it looks like you have 6 cores per node and thus 'mpirun' starts 18 processes. You should write some thing like mpirun -np ${SLURM_NTASKS} ./mm.o 6000 without specifying -np value, using "#SBATCH -n 16" as written in my sbatch script I hope mpirun will use 16 as the number of processes. however, I just realized mpirun doesn't read sbatch script.
