[torqueusers] Hogging Nodes

[rcbord at wm.edu]

Hi,
  If you are using "mpiexec" from OSC there is the -pernode and -npernode options.  I use them so that I can run Hybrid(mpi/openmp) parallel codes, 1 mpi process per node and 2 or 4 openmp threads.


the pbs resources request lines like this in my PBS scripts. 

#PBS -l walltime=00:10:00
#PBS -l nodes=3:cluster:ppn=2

mpiexec -pernode ./executable
