Al-Salam/CCG Downtime tasks
- LDAP Server migration from bs-new -> hopper
- yum update over all nodes
- Turn HT off
- PVFS
- PBS server on Hopper
How to use the PetaKit
- If you do not already have it, obtain the source for the PetaKit from the CVS repository on hopper (curriculum-modules/PetaKit).
- cd to the Subkits directory of PetaKit and run the area-subkit.sh to make an area subkit tarball or GalaxSee-subkit.sh to make a GalaxSee subkit tarball.
- scp the tarball to the target resource and unpack it.
- cd into the directory and run ./configure --with-mpi --with-openmp
- Use stat.pl and args_man to make an appropriate statistics run. See args_man for a description of predicates. Example:
perl -w stat.pl --program area --style serial,mpi,openmp,hybrid --scheduler lsf --user leemasa --problem_size 200000000000 --processes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-16-64 --repetitions 10 -m -tag Sooner-strongest-newest --mpirun mpirun.lsf --ppn 8

To Do
- Fitz/Charlie's message
- Petascale review
- BobSCEd stress test
Implementations of area under the curve
- Serial
- OpenMP (shared)
- MPI (message passing)
- MPI (hybrid mp and shared)
- OpenMP + MPI (hybrid)
GalaxSee Goals
- Good piece of code, serves as teaching example for n-body problems in petascale.
- Dials, knobs, etc. in place to easily control how work is distributed when running in parallel.
- Architecture generally supports hybrid model running on large-scale constellations.
- Produces runtime data that enables nice comparisons across multiple resources (scaling, speedup, efficiency).
- Render in BCCD, metaverse, and /dev/null environments.
- Serial version
- Improve performance on math?
GalaxSee - scale to petascale with MPI and OpenMP hybrid.
- GalaxSee - render in-world and steer from in-world.
- Area under a curve - serial, MPI, and OpenMP implementations.
- OpenMPI - testing, performance.
- Start May 11th
LittleFe
- Testing
- Documentation
- Touch screen interface
Notes from May 21, 2009 Review
- Combined Makefiles with defines to build on a particular platform
- Write a driver script for GalaxSee ala the area under the curve script, consider combining
- Schema
- date, program_name, program_version, style, command line, compute_resource, NP, wall_time
- Document the process from start to finish
- Consider how we might iterate over e.g. number of stars, number of segments, etc.
- Command line option to stat.pl that provides a Torque wrapper for the scripts.
- Lint all code, consistent formatting
- Install latest and greatest Intel compiler in /cluster/bobsced
BobSCEd Upgrade
Build a new image for BobSCEd:
- One of the Suse versions supported for Gaussian09 on EM64T [v11.1] - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3; SuSE Linux 9.3, 10.3, 11.1; or SuSE Linux Enterprise 10 (see G09 platform list) <-- CentOS 5.3 runs Gaussian binaries for RHEL ok
- Firmware update?
- C3 tools and configuration [v4.0.1]
- Ganglia and configuration [v3.1.2]
- PBS and configuration [v2.3.16]
- /cluster/bobsced local to bs0
- /cluster/... passed-through to compute nodes

- Infiniband and configuration
- GNU toolchain with OpenMPI and MPICH [GCC v4.4.0], [OpenMPI v1.3.2] [MPICH v1.2.7p1]
- Intel toolchain with OpenMPI and native libraries
- Sage with do-dads (see Charlie)
