Task JRA2.4 Accelerated Computing
- Attributes "GPUNumber" e "GPUMode" have been added to the command BLAH_JOB_SUBMIT. This required modifications blah_common_submit_functions.sh and server.c. The first implementation of the two new attributes have been successfully tested at CIRMMP cluster with the PBS/Torque LRMS. This required modifications to pbs_submit.sh.
- The next planned steps are:
- installing slurm LRMS on CIRMMP cluster
- add new JDL attributes in CREAM core
- After a review of the available technologies, GPGPU virtualisation in KVM/QEMU has been analysed and performance tests of passthrough technology have been carried out in a IBM dx360 M4 server with two NVIDIA Tesla K20 accelerators. The STMV test example of NAMD molecular dynamics simulation (CUDA version) has been used as testing application. The results shown that the application run 2-3% slower in a virtual machine compared to direct run on the tested server. To avoid potential performance problems, hyperthreading should be switched off.
- Recently a cloud site with GPGPU support has been set up with one master node and two compute nodes, using OpenStack Kilo as CMF and KVM as hypervisor, all on top of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS sysop.
- The next planned steps are:
- Testing the Openstack scheduler
- Start the integration with EGI-Engage Fedcloud
