Code build

For code generation we recommend the software package NVIDIA hpcx which is a combination of compiler and powerful libraries, like e.g. MPI.

Plain OpenMP for GPU

bgnlogin1 $ module load nvhpc-hpcx/23.1
bgnlogin1 $ module list
Currently Loaded Modulefiles: ... 4) hpcx   5) nvhpc-hpcx/23.1
bgnlogin1 $ nvc -mp -target=gpu openmp_gpu.c -o openmp_gpu.bin

MPI + OpenMP for GPU

bgnlogin1 $ module load nvhpc-hpcx/23.1
bgnlogin1 $ mpicc -mp -target=gpu mpi_openmp_gpu.c -o mpi_openmp_gpu.bin

Code execution

All available slurm partitions for the A100 GPU partition you can see on Slurm partition GPU A100.
