= Using Open MPI on a default environment = | Several implementation of MPI exist: Open MPI, MPICH2, MPICH, LAM, etc. | ||
In this practical session, we will focus on [http://www.open-mpi.org Open MPI]. | |||
=Pre-requisite= | |||
* Basic knowledge of MPI; if you don't know MPI, you can read: [[Grid_computation]]. For a more comprehensive tutorials on MPI, see [http://www.idris.fr/data/cours/parallel/mpi/choix_doc.html IDRIS courses on MPI]. | |||
* Knowledge of OAR ([[Getting Started]] tutorial), and for the second part of this tutorial, basic knowledge of OARGRID ([[Advanced OAR]] tutorial) and Kadeploy ([[Getting Started]] tutorial). | |||
=Overview= | |||
Since june 2010 the same default environment is available on every sites, therefore, you can use the default MPI library available on this environment (Open MPI 1.4.5). | |||

=== Infiniband hardware : === | |||
Infiniband hardware is available on severals sites (see [https://www.grid5000.fr/mediawiki/index.php/Special:G5KHardware#High_performance_network_families Hardware page]): | |||
* Rennes (20G) | |||

To check if the support for infiniband is available in Open MPI, run: | |||
{{Term|location=node|cmd=<code class="command">ompi_info</code> | grep openib}} | {{Term|location=node|cmd=<code class="command">ompi_info</code> | grep openib}} | ||
you should see something like this: | you should see something like this: | ||
MCA btl: openib (MCA v2.0, API v2.0, Component v1.4.1) | MCA btl: openib (MCA v2.0, API v2.0, Component v1.4.1) | ||
With Infiniband 40G (QDR), you should have much better performance that using ethernet or Myrinet 2G: | |||
0: 1 bytes 30716 times --> 4.53 Mbps in 1.68 usec | |||
1: 2 bytes 59389 times --> 9.10 Mbps in 1.68 usec | |||
... | |||
121: 8388605 bytes 17 times --> 25829.13 Mbps in 2477.82 usec | |||
The latency is given by the last column for a 1 byte message; the maximum throughput is given by the last line | 122: 8388608 bytes 20 times --> 25841.35 Mbps in 2476.65 usec | ||
123: 8388611 bytes 20 times --> 25823.40 Mbps in 2478.37 usec | |||
Less than 2 microsec in latency and almost 26Gbit/s in bandwitdh ! | |||
=== Myrinet hardware : === | |||
Myrinet hardware is available on severals sites (see [https://www.grid5000.fr/mediawiki/index.php/Special:G5KHardware#High_performance_network_families Hardware page]): | |||
* Lille (10G) | |||
* Sophia (10G) | |||
To reserve one core on two nodes with a 10G Myrinet interconnect:<br> | |||
Myrinet 10G: | |||
{{Term|location=frontend|cmd=<code class="command">oarsub</code> -I -l /nodes=2/core=1 -p "myri10g='YES'"}} | |||
To test the network: | |||
{{Term|location=node|cmd=<code class="command">cd</code> $HOME/src/mpi/NetPIPE-3.7.1}} | |||
{{Term|location=node|cmd=<code class="command">mpirun</code> --mca plm_rsh_agent "oarsh" -machinefile $OAR_NODEFILE NPmpi}} | |||
you should have something like that: | |||
0: 1 bytes 4080 times --> 0.31 Mbps in 24.40 usec | |||
1: 2 bytes 4097 times --> 0.63 Mbps in 24.36 usec | |||
... | |||
122: 8388608 bytes 3 times --> 896.14 Mbps in 71417.13 usec | |||
123: 8388611 bytes 3 times --> 896.17 Mbps in 71414.83 usec | |||
The minimum latency is given by the last column for a 1 byte message; | |||
the maximum throughput is given by the last line, 896.17 Mbps in this case. | |||
So in this case a latency of 24usec is very high, therefore the myrinet was not used as expected. It can happen if Open MPI has not found the mx libraries during the compilation. You can check this with : | |||
{{Term|location=node|cmd=<code class="command">ompi_info </code> | grep mx }} | |||
If the output is empty, there is no mx support builtin. | |||
With a | With a myrinet2G network, typical result should looks like this: | ||
This time we have: | This time we have: | ||

Running MPI on Grid'5000
When attempting to run MPI on Grid'5000 you'll be faced with a number of challenges, ranging from classical setup problems for MPI software to problems specific to Grid'5000. This practical session aims at driving you through the most common use cases, which are:
- Setting up and starting Open MPI on a default environment using
oarsh
. - Setting up and starting Open MPI to use high performance interconnect.
- Setting up and starting Open MPI to run on several sites using
oargridsub
. - Setting up and starting Open MPI on a default environment using a
allow_classic_ssh
. - Setting up and starting Open MPI on a kadeploy image.
Several implementation of MPI exist: Open MPI, MPICH2, MPICH, LAM, etc.
In this practical session, we will focus on Open MPI.
Pre-requisite
- Basic knowledge of MPI; if you don't know MPI, you can read: Grid_computation. For a more comprehensive tutorials on MPI, see IDRIS courses on MPI.
- Knowledge of OAR (Getting Started tutorial), and for the second part of this tutorial, basic knowledge of OARGRID (Advanced OAR tutorial) and Kadeploy (Getting Started tutorial).
Overview
Since june 2010 the same default environment is available on every sites, therefore, you can use the default MPI library available on this environment (Open MPI 1.4.5).
Using Open MPI on a default environment
Create a sample MPI program
- We will use a very basic MPI program to test OAR/MPI. Create a file
$HOME/src/mpi/tp.c
and copy the following source code:
the source code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <mpi.h>
#include <time.h> /* for the work function only */
int main (int argc, char *argv []) {
char hostname[257];
int size, rank;
int i, pid;
int bcast_value = 1;
gethostname (hostname, sizeof hostname);
MPI_Init (&argc, &argv);
MPI_Comm_rank (MPI_COMM_WORLD, &rank);
MPI_Comm_size (MPI_COMM_WORLD, &size);
if (!rank) {
bcast_value = 42;
}
MPI_Bcast (&bcast_value,1 ,MPI_INT, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD );
printf("%s\t- %d - %d - %d\n", hostname, rank, size, bcast_value);
fflush(stdout);
MPI_Barrier (MPI_COMM_WORLD);
MPI_Finalize ();
return 0;
}
This program uses MPI to communicate between processes; the MPI process of rank 0 will broadcast an integer (value 42) to all the other processes. Then, each process prints its rank, the total number of processes, and the value he got from process 0.
Setting up and starting Open MPI on a default environment using oarsh
Submit a job:
Compile your code:
oarsh
is the default connector used when you reserve a node. To be able to use this connector, you need to add the option --mca plm_rsh_agent "oarsh"
to mpirun.
You can also set an environment variable (usually in your .bashrc):
Open MPI also provides a config file solution. In your home, create a file as ~/.openmpi/mca-params.conf
plm_rsh_agent=oarsh filem_rsh_agent=oarcp
You should have something like:
helios-52 - 4 - 12 - 42 helios-51 - 0 - 12 - 42 helios-52 - 5 - 12 - 42 helios-51 - 2 - 12 - 42 helios-52 - 6 - 12 - 42 helios-51 - 1 - 12 - 42 helios-51 - 3 - 12 - 42 helios-52 - 7 - 12 - 42 helios-53 - 8 - 12 - 42 helios-53 - 9 - 12 - 42 helios-53 - 10 - 12 - 42 helios-53 - 11 - 12 - 42
You may have (lot's of) warning messages if Open MPI doesn't find high performance hardware: don't be afraid, it's normal but you could use FAQ#How_to_use_MPI_in_Grid5000.3F to avoid them. This can looks like this:
[[2616,1],2]: A high-performance Open MPI point-to-point messaging module was unable to find any relevant network interfaces: Module: OpenFabrics (openib) Host: helios-8.sophia.grid5000.fr Another transport will be used instead, although this may result in lower performance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- warning:regcache incompatible with malloc warning:regcache incompatible with malloc warning:regcache incompatible with malloc
or like this:

(ignored) [griffon-80.nancy.grid5000.fr:04867] mca: base: component_find: unable to open /usr/lib/openmpi/lib/openmpi/mca_mtl_mx: perhaps a missing symbol, or compiled for a different version of Open MPI? (ignored) ...
exit the job.
Setting up and starting Open MPI to use high performance interconnect
By default, Open MPI tries to use any high performance interconnect he can find. But it works only if the related libraries were found during the compilation of Open Mpi (not during the compilation of your application). It should work if you built Open MPI on a wheezy-x64 environment, and it also works correctly on the default environment.
We will be using the Netpipe tool to check if the high performance interconnect is really used: download it from this URL: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/NetPIPE/NetPIPE-3.7.1.tar.gz/5f720541387be065afdefc81d438b712/NetPIPE-3.7.1.tar.gz

Compile
Infiniband hardware :
Infiniband hardware is available on severals sites (see Hardware page):
- Rennes (20G)
- Nancy (20G)
- Grenoble (20G & 40G)
To reserve one core on two nodes with a 10G infiniband interconnect:
or for 20G:
To test the network:
To check if the support for infiniband is available in Open MPI, run:
you should see something like this:
MCA btl: openib (MCA v2.0, API v2.0, Component v1.4.1)
With Infiniband 40G (QDR), you should have much better performance that using ethernet or Myrinet 2G:
0: 1 bytes 30716 times --> 4.53 Mbps in 1.68 usec 1: 2 bytes 59389 times --> 9.10 Mbps in 1.68 usec ... 121: 8388605 bytes 17 times --> 25829.13 Mbps in 2477.82 usec 122: 8388608 bytes 20 times --> 25841.35 Mbps in 2476.65 usec 123: 8388611 bytes 20 times --> 25823.40 Mbps in 2478.37 usec
Less than 2 microsec in latency and almost 26Gbit/s in bandwitdh !
Myrinet hardware :
Myrinet hardware is available on severals sites (see Hardware page):
- Lille (10G)
- Sophia (10G)
To reserve one core on two nodes with a 10G Myrinet interconnect:
Myrinet 10G:
To test the network:
you should have something like that:
0: 1 bytes 4080 times --> 0.31 Mbps in 24.40 usec 1: 2 bytes 4097 times --> 0.63 Mbps in 24.36 usec ... 122: 8388608 bytes 3 times --> 896.14 Mbps in 71417.13 usec 123: 8388611 bytes 3 times --> 896.17 Mbps in 71414.83 usec
The minimum latency is given by the last column for a 1 byte message; the maximum throughput is given by the last line, 896.17 Mbps in this case. So in this case a latency of 24usec is very high, therefore the myrinet was not used as expected. It can happen if Open MPI has not found the mx libraries during the compilation. You can check this with :
If the output is empty, there is no mx support builtin.
With a myrinet2G network, typical result should looks like this:
This time we have:
0: 1 bytes 23865 times --> 2.03 Mbps in 3.77 usec 1: 2 bytes 26549 times --> 4.05 Mbps in 3.77 usec ... 122: 8388608 bytes 3 times --> 1773.88 Mbps in 36079.17 usec 123: 8388611 bytes 3 times --> 1773.56 Mbps in 36085.69 usec
In this example, we have 3.77usec and almost 1.8Gbps
More advanced use cases
Running MPI on several sites at once
In this tutorial, we use the following sites: rennes, sophia and grenoble. But you can now use any site. For running MPI applications on several site, we will be using oargrid. See Grid_jobs_management tutorial for more information.
![]() |
Note |
---|---|
For multiple sites, we may want to only use tcp , and not native mx and native infiniband; to do this, add this option to mpirun: --mca btl self,sm,tcp |
Synchronize the src/mpi directory, from the frontend (the tp binary must be available on all sites), to the two other sites. Here we supposed we are connected on sophia, and we want to synchronize to grenoble and rennes.
Reserve nodes on the 3 sites with oargridsub (you can reserve nodes from specific clusters if you want to).
![]() |
frontend :
|
oargridsub -w 02:00:00 rennes :rdef="nodes=2",grenoble :rdef="nodes=2",sophia :rdef="nodes=2" > oargrid.out |
Get the oargrid Id and Job key from the output of oargridsub:
Get the node list using oargridstat and copy the list to the first node:
Connect to the first node:
And run your MPI application:
![]() |

Compilation [optional]
If you want to use a custom version of Open MPI, you can compile it in your home directory.
- Make an interactive reservation and compile Open MPI on a node :
- Get Open MPI (or here: http://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v1.4/)

The source tarball includes a small patch to make Open MPI works on grid5000 on several sites simultaneously. For the curious, the patch is:

and compile: (wait ~2mn30s)
- Install it on your home directory (in $HOME/openmpi/ )
Then you can do the same steps as before, but with $HOME/openmpi/bin/mpicc
and $HOME/openmpi/bin/mpirun
Setting up and starting Open MPI on a kadeploy image
Building a kadeploy image
The default Open MPI version available in debian based distributions is not compiled with high performances libraries like myrinet/MX, therefore we must recompile Open MPI from sources. Fortunately, every default image (wheezy-x64-XXX) but the min variant includes the libraries for high performance interconnects, and Open MPI will find them at compile time.
We will create a kadeploy image based on an existing one.
Download Open MPI tarball if you don't already have it:
![]() |
frontend :
|
export http_proxy=http://proxy:3128/ |
Copy Open MPI tarball on the first node:
Then connect on the deployed node as root, and install openmpi:
Unarchive Open MPI:
Install gfortran, f2c and blas library:
Configure and compile:
Create a dedicated user named mpi, in the group rdma (for infiniband)
useradd -m -g rdma mpi -d /var/mpi echo "* hard memlock unlimited" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "* soft memlock unlimited" >> /etc/security/limits.conf mkdir ~mpi/.ssh cp ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ~mpi/.ssh chown -R mpi ~mpi/.ssh su - mpi mkdir src ssh-keygen -N "" -P "" -f /var/mpi/.ssh/id_rsa cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys echo " StrictHostKeyChecking no" >> ~/.ssh/config exit exit rsync -avz ~/src/mpi/ mpi@`head -1 $OAR_NODEFILE`:src/mpi/ ssh root@`head -1 $OAR_NODEFILE`
Create the image using tgz-g5k:
Disconnect from the node (exit). From the frontend, copy the image to the public directory:
Copy the description file of wheezy-x64-base:
![]() |
frontend :
|
grep -v visibility /grid5000/descriptions/wheezy-x64-base-1.4.dsc > $HOME/public/wheezy-openmpi.dsc
|
Change the image name in the description file; we will use an http URL for multi-site deploiement:
perl -i -pe "s@server:///grid5000/images/wheezy-x64-base-1.4.tgz@http://public.$(hostname | cut -d. -f2).grid5000.fr/~$USER/wheezy-openmpi.tgz@" $HOME/public/wheezy-openmpi.dsc
Now you can terminate the job:
Using a kadeploy image

Create a nodefile with a single entry per node:
Copy it to the first node:
connect to the first node:
This time we have:

This time we have 3.77usec, which is good, and almost 1.8Gbps. We are using the myrinet interconnect!
