HPCC benchmark failing with Intel MPI

[bwillems]

Hello,

I 've compiled the HPCC benchmark suite (http://icl.cs.utk.edu/hpcc/) with Intel MPI, but am facing the following run-time problem:

[bart@head 2x8]$ /share/intel/impi/3.2.1.009/bin64/mpirun -f 1.nodelist -n 16 -r ssh ./hpcc

The benchmark fails at the start of the HPL part of the benchmark. Any suggestions for fixes would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Correction: it fails during the PTRANS part of the benchmark.

Hi Bart,

It's very strange to see that you cannot start HPCC testing because this is quite standard testing. Have you read the article: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/performance-tools-for-software-developers-use-of-intel-mkl-... I hope it will be useful.

Might be your system has not enough memory for 16 processes. Have you tried less?
Could you provide details about your cluster?

Best wishes,
Dmitry

Please try mpirun -nolocal option because Intel MPI starts processes on local host by default.

FYI
The following link has an http form to build your parm file (the HPL.dat file). It attempts to build a parm file that will maximize node usage to obtain best FLOP score possible. But, it's also nice in that it builds a parm file that will use the number nodes/cores you want, without having to understand the format of the parm file.
