Monitor where threads/processes are running

There are several ways to monitor your job, either in live time directly on the compute node or by modifying the job script or the application code:

<html>live &dzigrarr; submit the job and connect with the compute node</html>

[xy@l32]$ sbatch job.sh
[xy@l32]$ squeue -u xy
JOBID    PARTITION  NAME      USER  ST  TIME  NODES  NODELIST(REASON)
1098917  mem_0096   vasp_xx   xy    R   0:02    1    n408-041
[xy@l32]$ ssh n408-041
[xy@nn408-041]$ top

When typing <html>&dzigrarr; 1</html> during the top call, per-core-information is obtained, e.g., about the cpu-usage, compare with the picture to the right. The user can select the parameters to be shown from a list displayed when typing <html>&dzigrarr; f</html>.

The columns VIRT and RES indicate the virtual, resident memory usage of each process (per default in kB). The column COMMAND lists the name of the command or application.

<html>batch script (Intel-MPI) &dzigrarr; set: I_MPI_DEBUG=4 </html>
<html>code &dzigrarr; via library functions information about the locality of processes and threads can be obtained (libraries: mpi.h or in C-code hwloc.h (hardware locality) or sched.h (scheduling parameters)) </html>
