shell warning

Submitting a job without specifying the proper shell will return a warning like below:

sbatch: WARNING: Job script lacks first line beginning with #! shell. Injecting '#!/bin/bash' as first line of job script.

Errors

If an error is encountered, the job is rejected.

Not specifying a project account

It is required to specify an account for a job to run. Please use the --account=<project-code> option to do this.

Owens

TIP: Remember to check the menu to the right of the page for related pages with more information about Owens' specifics.

OSC's Owens cluster being installed in 2016 is a Dell-built, Intel® Xeon® processor-based supercomputer.

ARM MAP

ARM MAP is a full scale profiler for HPC programs. We recommend using ARM MAP after reviewing reports from ARM Performance Reports. MAP supports pthreads, OpenMP, and MPI software on CPU, GPU, and MIC based architectures.

ARM Performance Reports

ARM Performance Reports is a simple tool used to generate a single-page HTML or plain text report that presents the overall performance characteristics of HPC applications. It supports pthreads, OpenMP, or MPI code on CPU, GPU, and MIC based architectures.

Schrodinger

The Schrodinger molecular modeling software suite includes a number of popular programs focused on drug design and materials science but of general applicability, for example Glide, Jaguar, and MacroModel.  Maestro is the graphical user interface for the suite.  It allows the user to construct and graphically manipulate both simple and complex chemical structures, to apply molecular mechanics and dynamics techniques to evaluate the energies and geometries of molecules in vacuo or in solution, and to display and examine graphically the results of the modeling calculations.

OpenMPI

MPI is a standard library for performing parallel processing using a distributed memory model. The Ruby, Owens, and Pitzer clusters at OSC can use the OpenMPI implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI).

PAPI

PAPI provides the tool designer and application engineer with a consistent interface and methodology for use of the performance counter hardware found in most major microprocessors. PAPI enables software engineers to see, in near real time, the relation between software performance and processor events.

This software will be of interest only to HPC experts.

ANSYS Mechanical

ANSYS Mechanical is a finite element analysis (FEA) tool that enables you to analyze complex product architectures and solve difficult mechanical problems. You can use ANSYS Mechanical to simulate real world behavior of components and sub-systems, and customize it to test design variations quickly and accurately.

Availability and Restrictions

ANSYS Mechanical is available on the Owens Cluster. You can see the currently available versions in the table on the main Ansys page here.
