Working on GPU nodes Interactively

Interactive mode

1. VSC-5 >  salloc -N 1 -p zen2_0256_a40x2 --qos  zen2_0256_a40x2

2. VSC-5 >  squeue -u $USER

3. VSC-5 >  srun -n 1 hostname  (...while still on the login node !)

4. VSC-5 >  ssh n3066-012  (...or whatever else node had been assigned)

5. VSC-5 >  module load cuda/9.1.85    
            cd ~/examples/09_special_hardware/gpu_gtx1080/matrixMul
            nvcc ./matrixMul.cu  
            ./a.out 

            cd ~/examples/09_special_hardware/gpu_gtx1080/matrixMulCUBLAS
            nvcc matrixMulCUBLAS.cu -lcublas
            ./a.out

6. VSC-5 >  nvidia-smi

7. VSC-5 >  /opt/sw/x86_64/glibc-2.17/ivybridge-ep/cuda/9.1.85/NVIDIA_CUDA-9.1_Samples/1_Utilities/deviceQuery/deviceQuery

Working on GPU using SLURM

SLURM submission gpu_test.scrpt

#!/bin/bash
#
#  usage: sbatch ./gpu_test.scrpt          
#
#SBATCH -J A40     
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH --partition zen2_0256_a40x2
#SBATCH --qos zen2_0256_a40x2
 
module purge
module load cuda/9.1.85
 
nvidia-smi
/opt/sw/x86_64/glibc-2.17/ivybridge-ep/cuda/9.1.85/NVIDIA_CUDA-9.1_Samples/1_Utilities/deviceQuery/deviceQuery      

Exercise/Example/Problem:
Using interactive mode or batch submission, figure out whether we have ECC enabled on GPUs of type gtx1080 ?
