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:

MVAPICH2

You can find all MVAPICH2 modules available on Sapelo2 by running the following command on a Sapelo2 node: 

module spider MVAPICH2

Module names that have an -QDR or -EDR extension only work for the corresponding IB network. Module names without such an extension can be used on either IB network. The module names have the format MVAPICH2/Version-CompilerToolchain-ToolchainVersion.

For example, these are some of the modules available: 

[shtsai@ss-sub1 ~]$ module spider MVAPICH2

        gmvapich2

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

      $ module -r spider '.*MVAPICH2.*'

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  For detailed information about a specific "MVAPICH2" 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 MVAPICH2/2.3.6-GCC-9.3.0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

OpenMPI

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