Slurm Test Env
There is a techie page at this location Slurm Techie Page for those of you who are interested in the setup.
This page is intended for users to get started with the Slurm scheduler. greentail52 will be the slurm scheduler test “controller” with several cpu+gpu compute nodes configured. Any jobs submitted should be simple, quick running jobs, like a “sleep” or “hello world” jobs. The configured compute nodes are still managed by Openlava.
Default Environment

Overview
From the information above it is a matter of learning new terminology and how to control devices. As you can see sinfo shows that nodes can exist in multiple partitions (queues, the '*' denotes default queue). So we could simply rebuild our queues in Slurm. But Slurm also presents node “features” (arbitrary resources like “hasLocalscracth”) and/or node “generic resources” (consumable, boolean, resources, like “gpu”). With a combination of those or just a very specific request for a resource you can control the routing of your job. For example, queue test contains 3 nodes but requesting resource gpu:geforce_rtx_2080_s assures you end up on node n79. Or you can simply request gpu:1 if gpu model is not important.
Same on the cpu only compute nodes. Features could be created for memory footprints (for example “hasMem64”, “hasMem128”, hasMem192“, “hasMem256”, “hasMem32”). Then all the cpu only nodes can go into one queue and we can stick all cpu+gpu nodes in another queue. Or all of them in a single queue. We'll see, just testing.
On the cpu resource requests: You may request 1 or more nodes, 1 or more sockets per node, 1 or more cores (physical) per socket or 1 or more threads (logical + physical) per core. Such a request can be fine grained or not; just request a node with –exclusive (test queue only) or share nodes (other queues, with –oversubscribe)
Note: this oversubscribing is not working yet. I can only get 4 simultaneous jobs running. Maybe there is a conflict with Openlava jobs. Should isolate a node and do further testing. After isolation (n37), 4 jobs with -n 4 exhausts number of physical cores. Is that why 5th job goes pending? Solved, see Changes section.
MPI
Slurm has a builtin MPI flavor, I suggest you do not rely on it. The documentation states that on major release upgrades the libslurm.so library is not backwards compatible and all software using it would need to be recompiled. There is a handy parallel job launcher which may be of use, it is called srun.
For now, we'll rely on PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH settings to control the environment. This also implies your job should run under Openlava or Slurm. With the new head node deployment we'll introduce modules to control the environment for newly installed software.
srun commands can be embedded in a job submission script but it can also run interactively. Like
$ srun --partition=mwgpu -n 4 -B 1:4:1 --mem=1024 sleep 60 &
For more details on srun consult https://slurm.schedmd.com/srun.html
Script
Putting it all together a job submission script might look like example below. Simply submit to sbatch, assuming the job script name is run
$ sbatch run
Sample Submit Script

Script Output
The relevant sections of the script above should generate output like this

gpu testing
- test standalone slurm v 21.08.1
- n33-n37 each: 4 gpus, 16 cores, 16 threads, 32 cpus
- submit one at a time, observe
- part=test, n 1, B 1:1:1, cuda_visible=0, no node specified, n33 only
- “resources” reason at 17th submit, used up 16 cores and 16 threads
- all on same gpu
- part=test, n 1, B 1:1:1, cuda_visible not set, no node specified, n33 only
- “resources” reason at 17th submit too, same reason
- all gpus used? nope, all on the same one 0
- redoing above with a
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=`shuf -i 0-3 -n 1` - even distribution across all gpus, 17th submit reason too
- part=test, n 1, B 1:1:1, cuda_visible not set, no node specified, n[33-34] avail
- while submitting 34 jobs, one at a time (30s delay), slurm fills up n33 first (all on gpu 0)
- 17th submit goes to n34, gpu 1 (weird), n33 state=alloc, n34 state=mix
- 33th job, “Resources” reason, job pending
- 34th job, “Priority” reason (?), job pending
- all n33 and n34 jobs on single gpu without cuda_visible set
- how that works with gpu util at 100% with one jobs is beyond me
- do all 16 jobs log the same wall time? Yes, between 10.10 and 10.70 hours.
- ohpc v2.4 slurm v 20.11.8
- part=test, n 1, B 1:1:1, cuda_visible=0, no node specified, n100 only
- hit a bug, you must specify cpus-per-gpu and mem-per-gpu
- then slurm detects 4 gpus on allocated node and allows 4 jobs on a single allocated gpu
- twisted logic
- so recent openhpc version but old slurm version in software stack
- trying standalone install on openhpc prod cluster - auth/munge error, no go
- do all 4 jobs have similar wall time? Yes on n100 varies from 0.6 to 0.7 hours
- ohpc v2.4 slurm v 20.11.8
- part=test, n 1, B 1:1:1, cuda_visible=0, no node specified, n78 only
- same as above but all 16 jobs run on gpu 0
- so the limit to 4 jobs on rtx5000 gpu is a hardware phenomenon?
- all 16 jobs finished, waal times of 3.11 to 3.60 hours

Changes
OverSubscribe
Suggestion was made to set OverSubcribe=No for all partitions (thanks, Colin). We now observe with a simple sleep script that we can run 16 jobs simultaneously (with either -n or -B). So that's 16 physical cores, each has a logical core (thread) for a total of 32 cpus for n37.

Partition Priority
If set you can list more than one queue…
srun --partition=exx96,amber128,mwgpu --mem=1024 --gpus=1 --gres=gpu:any sleep 60 &
The above will fill up n79 first, then n78, then n36…
Node Weight Priority
Weight nodes by the memory per logical core: jobs will be allocated the nodes with the lowest weight which satisfies their requirements. So CPU jobs will be routed last to gpu queues because they have the highest weight (=lowest priority).
hp12: 12/8 = 1.5 tinymem: 32/20 = 1.6 mw128: 128/24 = 5.333333 mw256: 256/16 = 16 exx96: 96/24 = 4 amber128: 128/16 = 8 mwgpu = 256/16 = 16
Or more arbitrary (based on desired cpu node comsumption of cpu jobs. No action taken.
tinymem 10 mw128 20 mw256fd 30 + HasMem256 feature so cpu jobs can directly target large mem mwgpu 40 + HasMem256 feature amber128 50 exx96 80
CR_CPU_Memory
Makes for a better 1-1 relationship of physical core to ntask yet the “hyperthreads” are still available to user jobs but physical cores are consumed first, if I got all this right.
Deployed. My need to set threads=1 and cpus=(quantity of physical cores)…this went horribly wrong it resaulted in sockets=1 setting and threads=1 for each node. — Henk 2021/10/18 14:32
We did set number of cpus per gpu (12 for n79) and minimum memory settings. Now we experience 5th job pending with 48 cpus consumed. When using sbatch set -n 8 because sbatch will override defaults.
srun --partition=test --mem=1024 --gres=gpu:geforce_rtx_2080_s:1 sleep 60 &
