- Dear everyone
Does openmx supported in ubuntu 20.04 ?
previously I've been using openmx in ubuntu 18.04 and it worked fines. After i upgraded to ubuntu 20.04, i cannot run openmx as usual, even i've tried to reinstall openmx and it doesn't change anything.
when i ran openmx in terminal, they telling me i have not enough slots, which is it doesn't make any sense for me because i know i have enough slots
here is the terminal message
There are not enough slots available in the system to satisfy the 3 slots that were requested by the application:
openmx
Either request fewer slots for your application, or make more slots available for use.
A "slot" is the Open MPI term for an allocatable unit where we can launch a process. The number of slots available are defined by the environment in which Open MPI processes are run:
1. Hostfile, via "slots=N" clauses (N defaults to number of processor cores if not provided) 2. The --host command line parameter, via a ":N" suffix on the hostname (N defaults to 1 if not provided) 3. Resource manager (e.g., SLURM, PBS/Torque, LSF, etc.) 4. If none of a hostfile, the --host command line parameter, or an RM is present, Open MPI defaults to the number of processor cores
In all the above cases, if you want Open MPI to default to the number of hardware threads instead of the number of processor cores, use the --use-hwthread-cpus option.
Alternatively, you can use the --oversubscribe option to ignore the number of available slots when deciding the number of processes to launch.
maybe this case is such a trivial, but I don't have good knowledge about it. I'll be very happy to listen for suggestion from you all
thanks
Best regards Te
