Dear Osamu,

 

If you open https://github.com/VI4IO/io-500-dev/tree/master/proposal-draft/kaust-georgios  the readme file was updated.

 

So first of all, the file startup-auto-detect.sh will execute many instances of benchmarks in order to find the appropriate parameters for you, as we want the benchmark to last for a minimum duration. That’s why in the Readme file after the execution of the auto-tuning tool you have the parameters that you need to define to the main benchmark, (see readme file).

 

In the startup-auto-detect.sh we have the paths

 

ior_cmd=/project/k01/markomg/burst_test/BB_ior/io-500-dev/proposal-draft/ior

mdtest_cmd=/project/k01/markomg/burst_test/BB_ior/io-500-dev/proposal-draft/mdtest

mdreal_cmd=/project/k01/markomg/burst_test/BB_ior/io-500-dev/proposal-draft/md-real-io

 

 

Which means you need to install the benchmarks IOR mdtest md-real-io and declare the appropriate paths.

 

https://github.com/MDTEST-LANL/mdtest

 

https://github.com/JulianKunkel/md-real-io

 

I assume you have already IOR.

 

 

Of course, change the core allocation as you prefer and define enough time limit, totally it depends on the allocation and on the system, so I can not provide any magic number, however, better more time than less. ☺

 

Don’t forget to read for the “parallel” find if you are interested to use it, you need to use the script compile.sh from the main folder to compile it and to adjust the main script (it is not used during auto-tuning), there are again instructions in the https://github.com/VI4IO/io-500-dev/tree/master/proposal-draft/kaust-georgios.

 

If you have any issue contact us.

 

My final advice is as you do clone of the git account copy one of the site’s folder, give your site’s name and work inside there (when you copy into your site’s name delete the data of the results folder only). Then you could commit to github your site’s files when you have finished.

 

Best regards,

George

Dear Osamu,

Please have a look at the individual starter scripts provided in the directories for Dkrz or Kaust: *.slurm

The variables are defined there together with the parameters for the resource manager.

Basically there are two runscripts in each dir, one to run the io500 benchmark and one to help determining the appropriate parameters to meet the 5 minute creation phases. 

 

We will extend the descriptions once we have a few more runs.

If you have any question do not hesitate to ask them.

 

Julian

Hi John,

We are looking at the git repository.  It seems io_500_core.sh
is a benchmark program, however, several variables should be
correctly defined.  It would be helpful if there are some
documentations about the codes.  These scripts are readable
but it helps to understand correctly.

Regards,
Osamu
