OpenMP on CPU CLX

OpenMP on CPU CLX

Code execution

Per default our hardware supports hyperthreading, allowing you start 192 processes on Cascade Lake machines (*96 partitions) and 80 on Skylake machines.

#!/bin/bash #SBATCH -N 4 cpus_per_node=${SLURM_JOB_CPUS_PER_NODE%\(*} export OMP_NUM_THREADS=$(($cpus_per_node*$SLURM_JOB_NUM_NODES)) # Run multi-threaded application ./yourexe

Note that more than one node, as in the example set with `-N 4` can only be used with a hybrid MPI-OpenMP job. For pure OpenMP programs, one '-N 1' is meaningful.

#!/bin/bash #SBATCH -N 4 #SBATCH --tasks-per-node 96 tasks_per_node=${SLURM_TASKS_PER_NODE%\(*} export OMP_NUM_THREADS=$(($tasks_per_node*$SLURM_JOB_NUM_NODES)) # Run multi-threaded application ./yourexe
