parallel processing
 

Hello

I am new to OpenFOAM and want to run a case in parallel at an high performance cluster. I am able to run the same case on a single node without any hassle but, I am getting the following error attached in the logfile when I run it parallelly.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Hi Sandeep,

the error log mentions:
This might be a good point to start with...

Martin

further doubts
 

thanks martin for your reply......
as am new to parallel processing, i did not understant what MPI_BUFFER_SIZE is...could you send me any other information .....

Actually i am doing my parallel job on a high performance computers on a super computer cluster....now I am including my qsub file also as i am expecting the possible error could be with defining the type of parallel messeging.....

In the file you qsub, make sure you set up an adequate buffer size for the mpi, before you execute the solver command. Something like this is what I use:

and after that mpirun -np 64 etc.

Cheers

Edit: By the way, I think openFOAM must use openmpi and not the intel version you set.
Edit2: And something else: you seem to use 32 processor cores in your qsub file yet you decompose into 64.

Hi Costas,

I am getting the same error message even when i included MPI_BUFFER_SIZE before solver command.

And yeah I got the same message after correcting my qsub file

with openmpi the cluster is not recognizing the command.

I am including my log and qsub file for 4 processors once again after your suggestions were implimented

Hi Sandeep,
I suppose you must use
export MPI_BUFFER_SIZE=2000000000
in the qsub file.

Martin

Yes, I think export is right, instead of just setting the value.

thanq guys....it seems to be working now!!

Hi,

i have got a new problem again....thanks that you have helped me running the job....now the problem is that my job is getting terminated suddenly and restarting again and again which is eventually terminating. I have included the log file in which if you see line 541 and line 3021 look similar........
