Hi,
I had compiled and installed Open MPI with C/R support in the way Josh said.
When finished, Open MPI had support and tools for C/R: ompi-checkpoint,
ompi-restart.
And I try an example ( hello_c.c in examples folder, but I edit it with a
for loop to print out "Hello..." 1,000,000 times)
But I get this error:
Error: The application (PID = 23573) failed to checkpoint properly.
Returned -1.
The steps what I had do:
# mpicc hello_c.c -o hello
# mpirun -np 4 -am ft-enable-cr hello
I get PID of this mpirun with another shell and do:
# ompi-checkpoint 23573
Error: The application (PID = 23573) failed to checkpoint
properly.
Returned -1.
What's wrong with this error?
Could you help me an example about using C/R in Open MPI?
Hiep
hello_c.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include "mpi.h"
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
int rank, size, i;
MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &rank);
MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &size);
for(i=0; i<1000000; i++){
printf("%d Hello, world, I am %d of %d\n",i,rank, size);
}
MPI_Barrier(MPI_COMM_WORLD);
MPI_Finalize();
return 0;
}
