Hello.

Anybody on this, please? In the while, I went on a little bit and implemented it as this:


[root@master ~]# qconf -sc | grep gpu
gpu                 gpu        INT         <=    YES         YES 0        0


[root@master ~]# qhost -F | grep gpu
   hc:gpu=1.000000

Now users can access the gpu by specifying 'qsub -l gpu=1'

I haven't defined a specialized queue for the gpu, and I see that when the job is running on the gpu, the sceduler also reserves a cpu slot on that host.. that's good because a gpu job will also consume cpu time..

More hints, tips or advices, please?

Thank you and best regards,
Robi

Hi all.

I just doing my first tests with Open Grid Scheduler and GPGPU.

To do the testing I set up opengridscheduler on two hosts, one is the
frontend, and one is the execution node. The execution node has 64 cores
and a nvidia tesla M2090. (Most probably, the final solution will be
made up of one master, 20-30 execution nodes with 8-12 cores each, and a
couple of file servers, and 4-8 GPUs attached to some of the execution
nodes)

At present I set up my testing environment queues, similar to the existing production cluster.. so the scheduler has three queues, 1hour, 1day, and unlimited.

I believe I once was told that the best way to add GPGPUs to a CPU
cluster, was by adding a queue dedicated to the GPUs and consumable
resources.. maybe also play with priorities to use CPUs on hosts with
GPUs.. do you agree?

I also was told that OpenGridScheduler has added support for GPUs.. Could anybody tell me more on that, please?

So.. I'm new to GPUs and would like some help/direction from the experts
on how to make a mixed cluster CPUs/GPUs using OpenGridScheduler.

here's my environment:
- OGS/GE 2011.11p1
- CentOS 6.4

[root@master ~]# qhost -q
HOSTNAME                ARCH         NCPU  LOAD  MEMTOT  MEMUSE  SWAPTO
  SWAPUS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    long.q               BP    0/0/20


Any help/tips/direction greatly appreciated!  :-)
