问题
I do not know if I perhaps understand this incorrectly. But here is what I want to achieve with OpenMPI in particular just starting with mpirun:
- I want to create a single process using the -np parameter that specifies the world size as 1
- I then want to set the universe size to some arbitrary number (for argument sake 10), how do I do this?
The following two commands:
- MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &world_size);
- MPI_Attr_get(MPI_COMM_WORLD, MPI_UNIVERSE_SIZE, &universe_size, &flag);
yield the output of world_size as 1 and universe_size as 1.
回答1:
Ok, so I found 2 ways of doing this:
- Implicit: mpirun -np 1 -H localhost,localhost,...,localhost executable
- Explicit: just assign a value to universe_size in the application itself, it will work fine.
Thank you for anyone that looked at this.
