===MPI Libraries for parallel jobs on Sapelo2===
==MPI Libraries for parallel jobs on Sapelo2==


All compute nodes on Sapelo2 have Infiniband (IB) interconnect. For a subset of ('''older''') compute nodes, internodal communication among them is provided by a '''QDR''' Infiniband network (40Gbps). For another subset of ('''newer''') compute nodes, these communications are provided by an '''EDR''' Infiniband network (100Gbps).  
All compute nodes on Sapelo2 have Infiniband (IB) interconnect via '''EDR''' Infiniband network (100Gbps). Various IB-enabled MPI libraries are available and users can set the environment variables for the MPI library of choice by loading the corresponding module file.  
 
<!-- Some of the MPI libraries were installed specifically for the QDR network or for the EDR network and those module files will have an '''-QDR''' or '''-EDR''' extension in their names. -->

MPI Libraries for parallel jobs on Sapelo2

All compute nodes on Sapelo2 have Infiniband (IB) interconnect via EDR Infiniband network (100Gbps). Various IB-enabled MPI libraries are available and users can set the environment variables for the MPI library of choice by loading the corresponding module file.

For more information on Environment Modules, please see the Lmod page.

The following MPI libraries are available:

OpenMPI

You can find all OpenMPI modules available on Sapelo2 by running the following command on a Sapelo2 node: 

module spider OpenMPI

The module names have the format OpenMPI/Version-CompilerToolchain-ToolchainVersion.

For example, these are some of the modules available: 

[shtsai@ss-sub1 ~]$ module spider OpenMPI

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  For detailed information about a specific "OpenMPI" package (including how to load the modules) use the module's full name.
  Note that names that have a trailing (E) are extensions provided by other modules.
  For example:

     $ module spider OpenMPI/4.1.6-GCC-13.2.0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once the appropriate module is loaded, you can compile code with mpicc, mpiCC, mpicxx, mpic++, mpifort, mpif90, mpif77, etc. and you can run applications that were linked to the MPI libraries loaded by the module.

MPI Libraries for parallel jobs on the teaching cluster

All compute nodes on Sapelo2 have Infiniband (IB) interconnect via EDR Infiniband network (100Gbps). Various IB-enabled MPI libraries are available and users can set the environment variables for the MPI library of choice by loading the corresponding module file.

For more information on Environment Modules, please see the Lmod page.

The following MPI libraries are available:

OpenMPI

You can find all OpenMPI modules available on the teaching cluster by running the following command: 

module spider OpenMPI

The module names have the format OpenMPI/Version-CompilerToolchain-ToolchainVersion.

For example, these are some of the modules available: 

zhuofei@teach-sub1 ~$ ml spider OpenMPI

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  OpenMPI:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Description:
      The Open MPI Project is an open source MPI-3 implementation.

     Versions:
        OpenMPI/3.1.4-GCC-8.3.0
        OpenMPI/4.1.1-GCC-11.2.0
        OpenMPI/4.1.2-GCC-11.2.0
        OpenMPI/4.1.4-GCC-11.3.0
        OpenMPI/4.1.4-GCC-12.2.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  For detailed information about a specific "OpenMPI" package (including how to load the modules) use the module's full name.
  Note that names that have a trailing (E) are extensions provided by other modules.
  For example:

     $ module spider OpenMPI/4.1.4-GCC-12.2.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once the appropriate module is loaded, you can compile code with mpicc, mpiCC, mpicxx, mpic++, mpifort, mpif90, mpif77, etc. and you can run applications that were linked to the MPI libraries loaded by the module.

Intel MPI

You can find all Intel MPI modules available on the teaching cluster by running the following command:

module spider impi

The module names have the format impi/Version-CompilerToolchain-ToolchainVersion. For example, these are some of the modules available:

zhuofei@teach-sub1 ~$ ml spider impi

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  impi: impi/2018.5.288-iccifort-2019.5.281
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Description:
      Intel MPI Library, compatible with MPICH ABI

     Versions:
        impi/2021.4.0-intel-compilers-2021.4.0
        impi/2021.6.0-intel-compilers-2022.1.0
        impi/2021.9.0-intel-compilers-2023.1.0
     Other possible modules matches:
        iimpi

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  To find other possible module matches execute:

      $ module -r spider '.*impi.*'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  For detailed information about a specific "impi" package (including how to load the modules) use the module's full name.
  Note that names that have a trailing (E) are extensions provided by other modules.
  For example:

     $ module spider impi/2021.9.0-intel-compilers-2023.1.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once the appropriate module is loaded, you can compile code with mpicc, mpiicc, mpicxx, mpiicpc, mpiifort, mpif90, mpif77, etc. and you can run applications that were linked to the MPI libraries loaded by the module.
