How to submit jobs in Microsoft HPC 2012 Pack?

[Zhanghong_T_]

Dear all,

I have a cluster contains 10 calculation nodes named N01~N10, in N01 the Windows server 2012 and Microsoft HPC 2012 Pack installed and in other nodes the Windows 7 64bit and Microsoft HPC 2012 Pack installed. I created a domain bjut.edu in N01 and added all other nodes to this domain. In HPC 2012, I also set N01 as the head node and added all other nodes to the head node. In 'node management' I can find that all N01~N10 are online.

I have also mapped network drive Z (\\n02\debug) on all nodes and the program and data are all in Z:\test. I can run my program by the following command line:

mpiexec -wdir "z:\test" -mapall -hosts 10 n01 2 n02 2 n03 2 n04 2 n05 2 n06 2 n07 2 n08 2 n09 2 n10 2 z:\test\fem

Now I need to run the program by submitting a job from HPC 2012 pack, is there any step by step instruction to do this?

Thanks,

Zhanghong Tang

Dear all,

The problem is solved by the help of here:

Specify the Working directory for your task. In general, a working directory should be indicated with a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path, not a relative or a local path.

That is to say, I should specify the UNC path instead of the mapped driver.
