In order to be able to use Mathematica, you have to load the program with the module load xyz
command
[username@l32]$ module avail # select a Mathematica version [username@l32]$ module load Mathematica/10.0.2 # load desired version [username@l32]$ module list # check loaded modules Currently Loaded Modulefiles: 1) Mathematica/10.0.2
(See also the introduction to the module command.)
Now, Mathematica can be called by
[username@l32]$ math
Example: Parallel Mathematica Task
Mathematica script example math-vsc3.m
:
GetEnvironment["MATH_BIN"] math = Environment["MATH_BIN"] kernelsperhost = 16 hosts=Import["nodelist","List"]; Needs["SubKernels`RemoteKernels`"] $RemoteCommand = "ssh -x -f -l `3` `1` " <> math <> " -mathlink -linkmode Connect `4` -linkname '`2`' -subkernel -noinit" (* first host with one kernel less *) LaunchKernels[RemoteMachine[hosts[[1]], kernelsperhost-1]]; imin=2; imax=Length[hosts]; idelta=1; Do[ LaunchKernels[RemoteMachine[hosts[[i]], kernelsperhost]]; , {i, imin, imax, idelta}] primelist = ParallelTable[Prime[k], {k, 1, 20000000}]; Print[primelist]
