Attention

GPU users: GPU nodes run EL9, while this documentation still reflects the EL7 software stack.

Run module avail on an EL9 login node, or within an interactive session on the relevant GPU type, to see the software available.

The documentation will be updated once all nodes have migrated to EL9.

PMIx

Process Management for Exascale Environments PMI Exascale (PMIx) represents an attempt to provide an extended version of the PMI standard specifically designed to support clusters up to and including exascale sizes. The overall objective of the project is not to branch the existing pseudo-standard definitions - in fact, PMIx fully supports both of the existing PMI-1 and PMI-2 APIs - but rather to (a) augment and extend those APIs to eliminate some current restrictions that impact scalability, and (b) provide a reference implementation of the PMI-server that demonstrates the desired level of scalability.

Note

This is an autogenerated page, more detail including examples may be available for this package. Please see the first section of Software on Stanage

After connecting to Stanage (see Establishing a SSH connection), start an interactive session with the following command:

srun --pty bash -i

A version of PMIx can then be made available with one of the following:

module load PMIx/4.2.4-GCCcore-12.3.0
module load PMIx/4.2.2-GCCcore-12.2.0
module load PMIx/4.1.2-GCCcore-11.3.0
module load PMIx/4.1.0-GCCcore-11.2.0
module load PMIx/3.2.3-GCCcore-10.3.0
module load PMIx/3.1.5-GCCcore-10.2.0
module load PMIx/3.1.5-GCCcore-9.3.0
