Does LAM/MPI work under PBS?
Applies to LAM 7.0 and above Yes! LAM/MPI will work under the PBS environment without problem. Starting with LAM 7.0, LAM is able to use the TM interface to PBS, eliminating the need for rsh/ssh. For more information, please see the LAM/MPI User’s Guide. A minimal PBS script to run an application foobar might look like: #!/bin/sh ### Job name #PBS -N lam-foobar ### Run the application lamboot $PBS_NODEFILE mpirun C foobar lamhalt exit 0 The SciClone cluster project at the College of William and Mary has developed a useful set of scripts for running LAM/MPI jobs under PBS. They were kind enough to make the script and man page available for other users. More information can be found in this mail to the LAM/MPI users list. If you have a great script for using LAM/MPI under PBS (or any other batch scheduling system) and are willing to make it available for others, please send a message to the LAM/MPI general use’s mailing list and we will add the solution to this list.
