====== Problem Sizes ======

N calculation, for example: \\
4 nodes, 4 gb each is 16 gb total which yields 2 gb double precision (8 byte) elements ... 2gb is 2*1024*1024*1024 = 2,147,395,600 ... take the square root of that and round 46,340 ... 80% of that is 37072\\

N calculation 16 nodes (infiniband or ethernet):\\
16 nodes, 4 gb each is 64 gb total which yields 8 gb double precision (8 byte) elements ... 8gb is 8*1024*1024*1024 = 8,589,934,592 ... take the square root of that and round 92,681 ... 80% of that is 74145

N calculation 4 heavy weight nodes:\\
4 nodes, 16 gb each is 64 gb total which yields 8 gb double precision (8 byte) elements ... 8gb is 8*1024*1024*1024 = 8,589,934,592 ... take the square root of that and round 92,681 ... 80% of that is 74145

NB calculations: \\
range of 32...256\\
ood starting values are 88 132

PxQ Grid:\\
max value PxQ should equal nr of cores \\
P<Q ... close for infiniband but P much smaller than Q for ethernet

LWNi (np=128): P=8, Q=16\\
LWNe (np=128): P=4, Q=32 or P=2, Q=64\\
HWN (np=32): P=4, Q=8 or P=2, Q=16

===== Infiniband (16 nodes) =====

  * nodes: compute-1-1 thru compute-1-16
  * each dual quad 2.6 ghz PE1950 (2x4x16 totals 128 cores)
  * each with 4 gb ram (4x16=64 gb total memory)

===== MPIRUN-1.2 =====

From Sili at Platform ...

<code>
Actrually, MPICH 1 always has problems in the shared memory control. It really takes time to debug on the buggy shared memory stuff. I would rather suggest using openmpi instead of MPICH 1 to launch Ethernet linpack testings as openmpi is a newer and better MPI implementation than MPICH 1 and it is MPI-2 compatible plus it supports for both ethernet and infiniband devices.
 
The precedure I just tested is as follows

1. Compile Openmpi
Here is the procedure I used to recompile openmpi :
# ./configure --prefix=/home/shuang/openmpi-1.2 --disable-mpi-f90
# make
# make install
 
To test the installation, create a host file. I generated a hostfile :
# cat /etc/hosts | grep compute | awk '{print $3} ' > machines
 
Then I recompiled the hello example (the hello_c.c file can be found at the examples directory on the untar'd source directory):
# /home/shuang/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpicc -o hello ./hello_c.c
 
And tested it :
# /home/shuang/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpirun -np 4 -machinefile machines --prefix /home/shuang/openmpi-1.2 ./hello
 
Please note that I used the complete path to the executables because by default, lam will be picked up. This is also why I used the --prefix option. You may want to use modules to load / unload these environment settings. Please let me know if you would like to have more information about this (open-source) software.
 
2. Compile Linpack with Openmpi
 
# wget http://www.netlib.org/benchmark/hpl/hpl.tgz
# tar zxf hpl.tgz
# cd hpl
# cp setup/Make.Linux_PII_CBLAS .
edit Make.Linux_PII_CBLAS, change "MPdir" to "/home/shuang/openmpi-1.2", change "MPlib" to "$(MPdir)/lib/libmpi.so", change "LAdir" to "/usr/lib64", change "CC" to "/home/shuang/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpicc", and change "LINKER" to "/home/shuang/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpicc".
 
Then you can make linpack by
# make arch=Linux_PII_CBLAS
 
To test it, edit the HPL.dat accordingly and run by:
# /home/shuang/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpirun -np 8 -machinefile machines --prefix /home/shuang/openmpi-1.2 ./xhpl

</code>

===== MPIRUN-1.2 (fixes) =====

My experience ...

<code>

source is in /mnt/src/hmeij-tmp/foodir/src

su delltest3

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/delletst3/openmpi-1.2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
add this to ~/.bashrc

cd /mnt/src/hmeij-tmp/foodir/src/openmpi-1.2
./configure --prefix /home/delltest3/openmpi-1.2 --disable-mpi-f90
make
make install

cd ~\\
/home/delltest3/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpicc -o hello \ 
/mnt/src/hmeij-tmp/foodir/src/openmpi-1.2/examples/hello_c.c

the machines file setup does not like 'nfs-2-1:8', 
so instead addd 8 lines for each node like this 'nfs-2-1'

ldd hello
ldd openmpi-1.2/bin/mpirun

test on a  single machine
/home/delltest3/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpirun -np 8 -machinefile \
/home/delltest3/machines  /home/delltest3/hello

cd ~
(for some reason you need to do this for compilation to be successful)
ln -s /mnt/src/hmeij-tmp/foodir/src/hpl
cd hpl
cp ~/Make.Linux_PII_CBLAS .
make arch=Linux_PII_CBLAS  
cp bin/Linux_PII_CBLAS/xhpl ~
cp bin/Linux_PII_CBLAS/HPL.dat ~

cd ~
/home/delltest3/openmpi-1.2/bin/mpirun -np 8 -machinefile \
/home/delltest3/machines /home/delltest3/xhpl > HPL.out
