mpi4py OpenMPI

This package provides Python bindings for the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard. It is implemented on top of the MPI-1/2/3 specification and exposes an API which grounds on the standard MPI-2 C++ bindings.

relax manual on Multi processor usage

If you have OpenMPI and mpi4py installed, then you have access to Gary Thompson's multi-processor framework for MPI parallelisation.

Gary has achieved near perfect scaling efficiency:

https://mail.gna.org/public/relax-devel/2007-05/msg00000.html

Dependencies

  1. Python 2.4 to 2.7 or 3.0 to 3.4, or a recent PyPy release.
  2. A functional MPI 1.x/2.x/3.x implementation like MPICH or Open MPI built with shared/dynamic libraries.

Install OpenMPI

Linux

# Install openmpi-devel, to get 'mpicc'
sudo yum install openmpi-devel

# Check for mpicc
which mpicc

# If not found, try this fix, ref: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=194688
#For 32 computer.
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/openmpi/bin/mpicc /usr/bin/mpicc
# For 64 bit computer.
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpicc /usr/bin/mpicc

# Source your shell settings, to find the executable, 
# or restart your terminal.
source $HOME/.cshrc

Install mpi4py

Linux and Mac

Remember to check, if there are newer versions of mpi4py.
The mpi4py library can be installed on all UNIX systems by typing:

# Change to bash, if in tcsh shell
bash

v=1.3.1

cd $HOME/Downloads
curl https://bitbucket.org/mpi4py/mpi4py/downloads/mpi4py-$v.tar.gz -o mpi4py-$v.tar.gz
tar -xzf mpi4py-$v.tar.gz
cd mpi4py-$v
# Then either
sudo pip install -e .
# Or
pip install .

cd ..

Relax In multiprocessor mode

tcsh 
set RELAX=`which relax`

# Normal
mpirun -np N+1 $RELAX --multi='mpi4py'

# In gui
mpirun -np N+1 $RELAX --multi='mpi4py' -g

where N is the number of slaves you have. See the mpirun documentation for details - this is not part of relax.
This code runs in the GUI, the script UI and the prompt UI, i.e. everywhere.

Helper start scripts

If you have several versions or development branches of relax installed, you could probably use some of these scripts, and put them in your PATH.

Script for force running relax on server computer

This script exemplifies a setup, where the above installation requirements is met on one server computer haddock, and where satellite computers are forced to run on this computer.

The file relax_trunk is made executable (chmod +x relax_trunk), and put in a PATH, known by all satellite computers.

#!/bin/tcsh -f

# Set the lax version used for this script.
set RELAX=/network_drive/software_user/software/NMR-relax/relax_trunk/relax

# Check machine, since only machine haddock have correct packages installed.
if ( $HOST != "haddock") then
        echo "You have to run on haddock. I do it for you"
        ssh haddock -Y -t "cd $PWD; $RELAX $argv; /bin/tcsh"
else
        $RELAX $argv
endif

Script for running relax with maximum number of processors available

This script exemplifies a setup, to test the running relax with maximum number of processors.

The file relax_test is made executable, and put in a PATH, known by all satellite computers.

#!/bin/tcsh -fe

# Set the relax version used for this script.
set RELAX=/sbinlab2/tlinnet/software/NMR-relax/relax_trunk/relax

# Set number of available CPUs.
set NPROC=`nproc`
set NP=`echo $NPROC + 1 | bc `

echo "Running relax with NP=$NP in multi-processor mode"

# Run relax in multi processor mode.
/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpirun -np $NP $RELAX --multi='mpi4py' $argv

Commands and FAQ about mpirun

See oracles page on mpirun and the manual openmpi:

  1. https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19923-01/820-6793-10/ExecutingPrograms.html
  2. http://www.open-mpi.org/doc/v1.4/man1/mpirun.1.php

For a simple SPMD (Single Process, Multiple Data) job, the typical syntax is:

mpirun -np x program-name

Huge speed win for the relaxation dispersion analysis - optimisation now uses the multi-processor.

The relaxation dispersion optimisation has been parallelised at the level of the spin clustering.
It uses Gary Thompson's multi-processor framework. This allows the code to run on multi-core, multi -processor systems, clusters, grids, and anywhere the OpenMPI protocol is available.

Because the parallelisation is at the cluster level there are some situations, whereby instead of optimisation being faster when running on multiple slaves, the optimisation will be slower.
This is the case when all spins being studied is clustered into a small number of clusters. Example 100 spins into 1 cluster.
It is also likely to be slower for the minimise user function when no clustering is defined, due to the overhead costs of data transfer (but for the numeric models, in this case there will be a clear win).

The two situations where there will be a huge performance win' is the grid_search user function when no clustering is defined and the Monte Carlo simulations for error analysis.
