  • The St Andrews MHD Cluster

    Part of Europe's most powerful tool for simulations in solar physics

    Introduction

    The Solar and Magnetospheric MHD Theory Group at the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of St Andrews hosts one of the three clusters of the UK MHD Consortium. Similar clusters are located at the Universities of Warwick and Leeds. It is also used by the Astronomy Group, as well as the Schools of Chemistry and Biology.

    Magnetohydrodynamics

    Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) describes the dynamics of conducting fluids, which are based on the interaction of electromagnetic fields with the flow of particles in the fluid. The theory combines the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics with electromagnetism as described by Maxwell's equations. Hannes Alfvén received the 1970 Nobel Prize in Physics for formulating the underlying theory. It applies to systems of various lenght scales, from plasmas of subatomic particles to the movements of galaxies. The above picure shows a solar flare, which can release particles and radiation carrying more than 1025 J of energy.

    Compute nodes

    The cluster consists of 201 compute nodes, each containing twelve cores (two 2.8/2.93GHz 6-core Intel Xeon X5660/X5670 processors), 24GB memory and 60GB local scratch disk.

    Storage

    150TB of shared disk are available as scratch space via the parallel Lustre file system.

    Network

    All components are linked via QDR Infiniband and Gigabit Ethernet. 18 blades inside one chassis are share full QDR connectivity; the maximum contention between different chassis is 3:1.

    Software and Usage

    Login

    The login nodes are wardlaw10 for MHD users and wardlaw11 for everybody else. The full address is wardlaw{10,11}.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk. You will receive instructions for authentication and login when your account is created.

    File Systems

    Your home directory is backed up every night, but has a quota of 10 GB per user. This is meant for configuration files, source code and other data you cannot afford to lose.

    Calculations should normally be run from the scratch directory (/scratch/MHD/<username> for MHD users, /scratch/st-andrews/<username> for everybody else). This is a fast parallel filesystem where large amounts of data can be created and accessed quickly. The cluster has no capacity for long-term storage, and you should move data that is not required for further calculations somewhere else.

    Compilers and MPI

    The Intel compilers (version 11.1 and 12.0) as well as the GNU compilers (gcc/gfortran version 4.1.2) are available. The Intel compilers generally give the best performance. Versions 11 and 12 have slightly different performance characteristics (and bugs), so please try both. The Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL) is included with both versions and should be used whenever possible where BLAS, LAPACK or FFT routines are used, because it is much faster than compiled source code.

    Two implementations of MPI are installed: Intel MPI (as part of the Intel Cluster Studio) and BullX MPI, the supported version from the cluster vendor. Feel free to try both, but DO NOT MIX MPI VERSIONS OR YOUR CODE WILL FAIL! When switching from one to the other, make sure that all source code is recompiled and the correct include files and libraries are used. I personally find Intel MPI slightly more reliable, but it very much depends on the nature of your parallel calculations.

    Intel MPI

    To set up the include directories and library files for Intel MPI and version 12 of the compiler, execute the following two lines before compiling:
        source /usr/local/intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
        source /usr/local/intel/mkl/bin/mklvars.sh intel64
        source /usr/local/intel/impi/4.0.3.008/intel64/bin/mpivars.sh
    The compiler wrapper to use is then mpiifort or mpiicc (not mpif90/mpicc, which will pick up the GNU compilers). An example batch job for running a program compiled this way can be found in /usr/local/examples/job-mpi.

    BullX-MPI

    The compilation and run enironment for this implementation (using the Intel 11.1 compilers, but it should also work with version 12) is set up with the following commands:
        source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/072/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64
        source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/072/mkl/tools/environment/mklvarsem64t.sh
        source /opt/mpi/bullxmpi/1.0.2/bin/mpivars.sh
    You then compile using the commands mpif90/mpif77/mpicc/mpiCC, depending on the language used.

    For further details, see the example batch jobs below and in /usr/local/examples. Please make sure that the environment used in the batch job matches that used during compilation.

    Queueing System

    All calculations should be submitted to the batch queues, to be carried out on the compute nodes. The cluster is using the SLURM queueing system and scheduler. The most important user commands are sbatch, squeue and scancel. (If you are used to SGE or PBS based queueing systems, these are the equivalents of qsub, qstat and qdel, respectively.)  You can find out the complete syntax with the command man (e.g.  man squeue), but the most common combinations of command and flags are the following:
        sbatch <jobscript>
    where you replace <jobscript> with the name of a file containing your script (see below). This submits <jobscript> to the queueing system. The scheduler will find a time when it can be run.
    You can check the status of your jobs with squeue. The command
            squeue -u <username>
    (again replace <username> with your login name) will give you an output similar to the following:

    [herbert@wardlaw10 ws]$ squeue -u pjb40
      JOBID PARTITION     NAME     USER  ST       TIME  NODES NODELIST(REASON)
       7205 exclusive    lowre    pjb40   R 1-02:03:20      4 wardlaw[132-133,135,137]
       7179 exclusive   highre    pjb40   R 1-07:02:51      5 wardlaw[138,141,143-145]
       7178 exclusive convecto    pjb40   R 1-07:33:09      1 wardlaw40

    The fields in this output have the following meaning:
    Job ID: This is what you need if you want to cancel the job (scancel <job-id>).
    partition:
    The queue it was submitted to (currently exclusive or shared; see example below)
    name: Name of the job (can be given with the -J flag, see example below)
    user: Login name of the job's owner.
    state: For a full list, see "man squeue". The most common ones are:
        R: Running
        PD: Pending (scheduled for later or waiting for resources)
    time:
    Time used so far
    nodes: Number of nodes requested
    nodelist: Cluster nodes where job is running
    reason: Reason why job is not running (Resources means waiting for nodes)

    The command
        scancel <job-id>
    will remove a job from the queue. If it is running, it will be stopped.

    Queues

    For the moment, the available queues are called exclusive
    and shared. The exclusive queue always assigns whole nodes and should generally be used for parallel calculations using MPI. Single-core jobs, or any other runs that require less than 12 cores, should be submittted to the shared queue.

    Example job 1: Intel MPI

    #!/bin/bash
    #SBATCH -J imb
    #SBATCH -N 2
    #SBATCH -n 24
    #SBATCH -t 48:00:00
    #SBATCH -p exclusive

    source /usr/local/intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
    source /usr/local/intel/impi/4.0.3.008/bin64/mpivars.sh
    export I_MPI_FABRICS=shm:dapl

    mpirun -n $SLURM_NPROCS IMB-MPI1 >IMB-intel-24.out


    A batch job is a script consisting of two parts: directives telling the queueing system about the resources required for the job, and the commands to be executed once it is running. Here is an explanation of the job above:


    #!/bin/bash
    Specify the shell to use for the script to run. Bash is the default shell on the cluster and should be used unless you know what you are doing. This must be the first line.

    #
    SBATCH -J imb
    Give the job a name that will appear in the squeue output.

    #SBATCH -N 2
    Request two nodes.

    #SBATCH -n 24
    Request space for 24 tasks. This is also the number of processes started in an MPI calculation, and should not exceed the number of cores on your nodes (12 x N).

    #SBATCH -t 48:00:00
    Request 48 hours. Time can be specified in seconds, or as hh:mm:ss. Requesting shorter times increases the chances of a job running soon due to backfilling by the scheduler. The maximum time you can request depends on the user group you belong to. For UKMHD users, it is 48 hours. Longer jobs can be run after informing me and may need approval from one of the PIs.

    #$ -p exclusive
    Specify the queue ("partition") to run in. Most parallel applications should use exclusive. The alternative is shared, which is meant for jobs using less than one complete node (i.e. single-core calculations)

    The rest of the script contains the commands to be executed when the job starts. In this case, this consists of setting up the environment for Intel MPI and starting a parallel program using mpirun:

    source /usr/local/intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
    source /usr/local/intel/impi/4.0.3.008/bin64/mpivars.sh
    export I_MPI_FABRICS=shm:dapl
    These three lines set up the environment (including executable and library paths) such that Intel MPI and libraries are used. Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

    mpirun
    -n $SLURM_NPROCS ./program_name
    Run your aplication as usual. The variable SLURM_NPROCS contains the number of tasks you requested. The nodes to use are automatically taken from the SLURM environment.

    Example job 2: BullX MPI

    #!/bin/bash
    #SBATCH -J imb
    #SBATCH -N 2
    #SBATCH -n 24
    #SBATCH -t 48:00:00
    #SBATCH -p exclusive

    source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/072/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64
    source /opt/mpi/bullxmpi/1.0.2/bin/mpivars.sh

    mpirun /usr/local/progs/CASTEP-5.5.1/obj/linux_x86_64_ifort11/castep tetradecanoic3

    The SLURM directives are identical to those in job 1 above, see there for an explanation. The only difference is that the environment is configured for BullX-MPI and version 11 of the Intel compilers (the two lines starting with source), and mpirun requires no flags, as all information on the compute nodes used is taken from the SLURM environment.
