############################################ # Mandatory parameters in services/mpi # ############################################

# N.B. this file contains common configuration for CE and WN # As such, it should be included in your site-info.def to ensure # that the configuration of the CE and WNs remains in sync.

#---------------------------------- # MPI-related configuration: #---------------------------------- # Several MPI implementations (or "flavours") are available. # If you do NOT want a flavour to be configured, set its variable # to "no". Otherwise, set it to "yes". If you want to use an # already installed version of an implementation, set its "_PATH" and # "_VERSION" variables to match your setup (examples below). # # NOTE 1: the CE_RUNTIMEENV will be automatically updated in the file # functions/config_mpi_ce, so that the CE advertises the MPI implementations # you choose here - you do NOT have to change it manually in this file. # It will become something like this: # # CE_RUNTIMEENV="$CE_RUNTIMEENV # MPICH # MPICH-1.2.7p4 # MPICH2 # MPICH2-1.0.4 # OPENMPI # OPENMPI-1.1 # LAM" # # NOTE 2: it is currently NOT possible to configure multiple concurrent # versions of the same implementations (e.g. MPICH-1.2.3 and MPICH-1.2.7) # using YAIM. Customize "/opt/glite/yaim/functions/config_mpi_ce" file # to do so.

munge configuration

IMPORTANT: The updated EPEL5 build of torque-2.5.7-1 as compared to previous versions enables munge as an inter node authentication method.

  • verify that munge is correctly installed:
# rpm -qa | grep munge
munge-libs-0.5.8-8.el5
munge-0.5.8-8.el5
  • On one host (for example the batch server) generate a key by launching:

  • Copy the key, /etc/munge/munge.key to every host of your cluster, adjusting the permissions:
# chown munge:munge /etc/munge/munge.key
  • Start the munge daemon on each node:
# service munge start

software area settings

you have to import the software area from CE (or another host).
  • Edit the file /etc/fstab by adding a line like the following:
cremino.cnaf.infn.it:/opt/exp_soft/ /opt/exp_soft/ nfs rw,defaults 0 0
  • check nfs and portmap status
# service nfs status
rpc.mountd is stopped
nfsd is stopped

# service portmap status
portmap is stopped

# service portmap start
Starting portmap:                                          [  OK  ]

# service nfs start
Starting NFS services:                                     [  OK  ]

Starting NFS mountd:                                       [  OK  ]
Starting RPC idmapd:                                       [  OK  ]

# chkconfig nfs on
# chkconfig portmap on
  • after any modification in /etc/fstab launch
mount -a
  • verify the mount:
# df -h
