Hi all,
I just learned that gathering statistics using I_MPI_STATS is not supported by version 2019 of Intel MPI (https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-mpi-library-2019-beta-release-notes-for-linux-os, "Removals").
I found this feature quite useful. Is there now a different way to gather MPI statistics? Will this removal be permanent or might the environment variable be re-introduced in a later version? If none is the case, what is the motivation for removing it?
Best,
Christian

Hi Christian,
You can use Application Performance Snapshot (APS) to gather MPI statistics.
Here is quick guide:
-
$ source apsvars.sh
-
$ mpirun <params> aps <binary>
- By default, APS collects hardware counters and MPI statistics. To disable hardware counters statistics collection:
mpirun <params> aps -c mpi <binary>
aps_result_<date> directory will be created.
-
$ aps-report aps_result_<date> - generate Summary report (text and HTML)
-
$ aps-report aps_result_<date> -fF - to generate diagram with information about all MPI operations called
- You can find information about available diagrams by calling $ aps-report -h or here.
- APS can collect different amount of statistics for each MPI function, you can control it by environment variable MPS_STAT_LEVEL ( 1 to 5, 1 is default) . More information on this can be found here.
Best regards,
Marat
