Hi,

 

I want to execute Linpack test on my m/c which has 12 processing
element, therefore I want 12 parallel processes of Linpack (1 for each
element).

I am also limited to 1 GB RAM on my m/c.

 

I have modified the HPL.dat as per the documentation:

P = 3

Q = 4

N = 3072 (using <80% of available memory)

NB = 1152

Swap threshold = 1152

 

Create a machine.list file, which contains my m/c's IP address 12 times
(all elements are present in same node).

Executing Linpack using:

            Mpirun -np 12 -machinefile machine.list xhpl

 

However, it gives me following error:

 

            HPL ERROR from process # 0, on line 419 of function
HPL_pdinfo:

>>> Need at least 12 processes for these tests <<<

 

I guess it suggests, there is a problem with my HPL.dat.

Can someone please help me figure out what exactly is the problem with
this

 

 

Best Regards,

Aditya Vasal
