.SH NAME
.B pbs_mpihp
\- run an MPI application in a PBS job with HP MPI
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pbs_mpihp
[-h ] [-np ] [] []
.B pbs_mpihp
[] -f [-- []]
.B pbs_mpihp
--version
.SH DESCRIPTION
The PBS command
.B pbs_mpihp
replaces the standard
.I mpirun
command in a PBS
HP MPI job, for executing programs.
.B pbs_mpihp
is a front end to the HP MPI version of mpirun.
When
.B pbs_mpihp
is invoked from a PBS job, it
processes the command line arguments, then calls standard HP mpirun to
actually start the MPI ranks. The ranks created are mapped onto
CPUs on the vnodes allocated to the PBS job. The environment variable
.B MPI_REMSH
is set to
.I $PBS_EXEC/bin/pbs_tmrsh.
This causes
the processes that are created to become part of the PBS job.
The path to standard HP mpirun is found by checking to see if a link
exists with the name
.I "PBS_EXEC/etc/pbs_mpihp".
If this link exists,
it points to standard HP mpirun. If it does not exist, a call
to
.I "mpirun -version"
is made to determine whether it is HP mpirun.
If so, the call is made to "mpirun" without an absolute path.
If HP mpirun cannot be found, an error is output, all temp
files are cleaned up and the script exits with value 127.
If
.B pbs_mpihp
is invoked from outside a PBS job, it passes all of
its arguments directly to standard HP mpirun without further processing.
.B Configuration
.br
When HP MPI is wrapped with pbs_mpihp, "rsh" is the default used to
start the mpids. If you wish to use "ssh" or something else,
be sure to set the following in $PBS_HOME/pbs_environment:
.RS 5
.I PBS_RSHCOMMAND=ssh
.RE
or put the following in the job script:
.RS 5
.I export PBS_RSHCOMMAND=
.RE
.SH USAGE
Usage is the same as for HP
.I mpirun.
.B pbs_mpihp
allows one executable to be specified.
.B pbs_mpihp -f
uses an
.I appfile
to list multiple executables.
The format is described in the HP mpirun man page. If this form
is used from inside a PBS job, the file is read to determine
what executables are to be run and how many processes are
started for each.
Executing
.B pbs_mpihp
with the
.I -client
option is not supported under PBS.
.SH OPTIONS
All options except the following are passed directly to HP mpirun
with no modification.
.IP "-client" 15
Not supported.
.IP "-f "
The specified
.I appfile
is read by
.B pbs_mpihp.
.IP "-h " 15
Ignored by
.B pbs_mpihp.
.IP "-l "
Ignored by pbs_mpihp.
.IP "-np " 15
Specifies the
.I number
of processes to run on the PBS vnodes.
.IP "--version" 15
The
.B pbs_mpihp
command returns its PBS version information and exits.
This option can only be used alone.
.SH EXIT VALUES
.IP 127 15
If HP
.B mpirun
cannot be found
