Run noground_bidom in distributed with MPI

0 votes
by (120 points)
Hello,

I have been trying to run noground_bidom benchmark with MPI but it does not work. The output of the execution is below (I tried both using the run.py script with the --np option or directly with mpiexec and the error is the same). I also tried the carptests tool for the same benchmark since it is performed in parallel, and it does not work as well (if I set np to 1 in this case then it works).

Note that I tried other examples with MPI and they work (from the bidomain examples).

Is there anything special to do for the no ground benchmark ?
I have installed openMPI 4.1.1, and built petsc and openCARP from source files (I did not install openCARP but just build it). Everything was installed on my own machine on linux.

Thank you

Output of the execution : ./run.py --np 2 :

Hi!

One way to give us more insight into your problem without actively debugging the code, would be to run the experiment with valgrind attached. You can do this as following:

1) install valgrind if you haven't yet

2) copy the executed command into a scirpt file (i.e. a text file).

3) in your script file, insert

               valgrind --track-origins=yes

after

                 mpiexec -np N

and before the opencarp executable path. As such,

/home/a/openCARP/install/lib/openmpi/bin/mpiexec -n 2 /home/a/openCARP/_build/bin/openCARP

becomes

/home/a/openCARP/install/lib/openmpi/bin/mpiexec -n 2 valgrind --track-origins=yes /home/a/openCARP/_build/bin/openCARP

In your last script line, add " 2> vgerr.txt", e.g.:

 -stimulus[0].zd 1100.0 2> vgerr.txt

4) Given that your script file is called "script.sh", run the script with

bash script.sh

5) I need to inspect the output vgerr.txt file. Please make it available for download (e.g. dropbox)

Hello,
Thank you for the detailed answer and for your help.
Valgrind output can be downloaded from here : https://filesender.renater.fr/?s=download&token=fdfad091-cf84-4fdb-96f8-585f5de5558c&lang=en

Hi!

Seems there was a problem when passing the solver options. Please check petsc_err_log.txt in your simulation output directory and make it available.

Thanks, Aurel

Hello,
Thank you for your answer. Please find below the output of petsc_err_log.txt.
There seems to be an issue with petsc version. I tried both the git version and the tarball version (https://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/petsc/release-snapshots/petsc-3.15.0.tar.gz). They both produce the same error.

Ok, this looks like the elliptic solver type is either misspelled or not available. Most likely, you do not have the Hypre package installed in your PETSc installation.

In the error message, the PETSc configuration is specified as:

-prefix=/home/a/Boulot/LIB/install --with-debugging=0 --with-mpi-dir=/home/a/Boulot/LIB/install COPTFLAGS=-O2 CXXOPTFLAGS=-O2 FOPTFLAGS=-O2

If this is correct, then you need to re-configure and re-build PETSc with the options

./configure \
    --prefix=/home/a/Boulot/LIB/install \
    --download-mpich \
    --download-fblaslapack \
    --download-metis \
    --download-parmetis \
    --download-hypre \
    --with-debugging=0 \
    COPTFLAGS='-O2' \
    CXXOPTFLAGS='-O2' \
    FOPTFLAGS='-O2'

Perfect thank you, it works now.
Sorry for wasting your time on such a silly mistake.
