| − | Users for WebMo:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Create an LDAP user.
| |
| − | * [http://w0.cluster.earlham.edu/~alice/webmo-cgi-bin/login.cgi Log in] using that user's credentials
| |
| − | * Give the group password. (This is a one-time requirement. Future logins will not ask for it.)
| |
| − | * Use Gaussian.

| − | The ISO images for Gaussian installer live in /cluster/gaussian. For whedon, I used the ISO image intended for CPUs that support SSE4.2 instructions.
| |
| − | First, mount this image in some directory using mount -o command. After that, follow these instructions: https://gaussian.com/g16/g16bin_install.pdf.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You can connect Gaussian to WebMO through WebMO's web interface(log in as admin and go to Interface Manager). The current version of Gaussian that we are using is g16, but our WebMO installation is so old that it only supports up to g09. In order to overcome this problem, we have two symlinks /mounts/whedon/software/Gaussian/g09 and /mounts/whedon/software/Gaussian/g16/g09, pointing to the directories /mounts/whedon/software/Gaussian/g16 and /mounts/whedon/software/Gaussian/g16/g16 respectively. After creating these symlinks, use the 'suggest' button in WebMO's Gaussian Manager to provide the paths for different Gaussian directories.

| − | '''WebMO'''
| |
| − | * yum installed httpd
| |
| − | * Installed on bs0 with the following params:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | Path to perl: /usr/bin/perl
| |
| − | Webserver name: bs0-new.cluster.earlham.edu
| |
| − | HTML directory: /var/www/webmo
| |
| − | HTML URL: /webmo
| |
| − | CGI script directory: /var/www/cgi-bin
| |
| − | CGI script URL: /cgi-bin
| |
| − | User files directory: /mounts/bobsced/WebMO</pre>
| |
| − | * Get this error when authing with LDAP: <code>Can't locate Authen/Simple/LDAP.pm</code>
| |
| − | * yum installed perl-LDAP.noarch, didn't work, so used CPAN to install Authen::Simple::LDAP
| |
| − | * edited /var/www/cgi-bin/interfaces/authen.conf for our LDAP settings
| |
| − | * Before externally authenticated users can use it, you have to go in as administrator and check the box to allow them in the Webmo group (or whatever other group)
| |
| − | * Gamess:
| |
| − | ** yum install compat-gcc-34-g77.x86_64 and gfortran
| |
| − | ** Followed directions from [http://www.webmo.net/support/gamess_linux.html Webmo site]
| |
| − | * Added the following line to httpd.conf:
| |
| − | :<code>SuexecUserGroup bob users </code>
| |
| − | * Gaussian 09 not supported, though it's installed in /mounts/bobsced/usr/local/g09
| |
| − | * Installed g03, except get errors:
| |
| − | <pre>Erroneous write during file extend. write 160 instead of 4096
| |
| − | Probably out of disk space.
| |
| − | Write error in NtrExt1: No such file or directory
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | or
| |
| − | <pre>Write error in NtrExt1: Bad address</pre>
| |
| − | ** To fix this, do <code>echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space</code>
| |
| − | ** <font color="green">This needs to be set to happen all the time on boot</font>

| − | === Gaussian environment ===
| |
| − | I use this in my .bashrc:
| |
| − | | |
| − | export GAUSS_EXEDIR=/cluster/bazaar/software/g03
| |
| − | export GAUSS_LFLAGS='-nodelist "b0 b1" -opt "Tsnet.Node.lindarsharg: ssh " -mp 2'
| |
| − | export GAUSS_SCRDIR=/tmp
| |
| − | export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/cluster/bazaar/software/g03
| |
| − | export g03root=/cluster/bazaar/software
| |
| − | export PATH=$PATH:/cluster/bazaar/software/g03
| |
| − | | |
| − | Seems to work, although you might want to tweak the node list.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Running Gaussian in parallel ===
| |
| − | Understand the distinction between <tt>nprocs</tt> and <tt>nprocl</tt>. <tt>nprocs</tt> is for a shared-memory (single-image) machine, whereas <tt>nprocl</tt> is for a distributed-memory (cluster) system. You want to use <tt>nprocl</tt> on all our computing systems. For example, if you want to run on eight processes (four nodes), add a line like this
| |
| − | | |
| − | %nprocl=8
| |
| − | | |
| − | to your input file. You should then specify <tt>qsub -l nodes=4:ppn=2 ''script''</tt> on the command line to submit your PBS script with a requirement of four dual-processor machines.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once you have the number of CPUs specified in the input file, make sure that your nodelist in GAUSS_LFLAGS is set properly. See [[Cluster:Gaussian_environment|Gaussian environment]] for details.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you have a bunch of input files you want to modify, use the add_nproc.pl script in /cluster/generic/bin. First cd to the directory with your input files, and then do:
| |
| − | | |
| − | perl /cluster/generic/bin/add_nproc.pl ''n''
| |
| − | | |
| − | where ''n'' is the number proecssors you want to run on.
| |
| − | | |
| − | After that, fire it up with <tt>$g03root/bsd/g03l</tt>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Sample Gaussian PBS script ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is a sample PBS script for Gaussian:
| |
| − | | |
| − | #!/bin/sh
| |
| − | #PBS -N gaussian_test061.com_nodes=2:ppn=2
| |
| − | #PBS -o /cluster/home/skylar/bazaar/gaussian_nodes2/test061.com.out
| |
| − | #PBS -e /cluster/home/skylar/bazaar/gaussian_nodes2/test061.com.err
| |
| − | #PBS -q batch
| |
| − | #PBS -m abe
| |
| − | #PBS -l nodes=2:ppn=2
| |
| − | | |
| − | cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
| |
| − | /cluster/bazaar/software/g03/bsd/g03l < /cluster/bazaar/software/g03/tests/com_smp4/test061.com > /cluster/home/skylar/bazaar/gaussian_nodes2/test061.com.log
