This how-to article explains how to load and run Comsol on HPC.
Instructions
comsol with MPI
To run comsol with SLURM, please create following comsol.sh:
#!/bin/bash
# For general partition
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH -p general
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=126
#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=1
#SBATCH --output comsol.log
# Clear the output log
echo -n > comsol.log
# Add debugging information.
scontrol show job $SLURM_JOBID
# Details of input and output files.
INPUTFILE=/path/to/input_model.mph
OUTPUTFILE=/path/to/output_model.mph
# Load our comsol module.
module purge
module load comsol/6.2
# Run comsol.
comsol batch \
-clustersimple \
-np $SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK \
-mpifabrics shm:ofa \
-inputfile $INPUTFILE \
-outputfile $OUTPUTFILE \
-tmpdir temp
Then submit the script by issuing:
$ sbatch comsol.sh
comsol with GPU
$ ssh <NetID>@login.storrs.hpc.uconn.edu
$ module load comsol/6.2
To run comsol with SLURM, please create following comsol.sh:
Then submit the script by issuing:
comsol on single node
Some comsol algorithms like PARDISO do not make use of MPI like . To run these, you can specify -np instead of -clustersimple as follows
Then submit the script by issuing:
