GridapGmsh will download a GMSH binary via BinaryBuilder, which then is installed to your ~/.julia/artifacts directory, this should work fine in the most cases. Do nothing (automatically installation). There are two possible ways to install the GMSH dependency: If the data exceeds this size, the system uses scheduled communication.Pkg > add GridapGmsh Installation requirements maxMasterFileBufferSize sets the maximum size of the buffer. When using the masterUncollated file handling, non-blocking MPI communication requires a sufficiently large memory buffer on the master node. NOTE!!: if the user does not have threading enabled in their MPI, they should disable thread support for collated file handling by setting in the global etc/controlDict file:įor users who compile OpenMPIusing ThirdParty-dev, threading has been enabled and you can update and recompile by: cd $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR If the data exceeds this size, the write does not use threading. maxThreadFileBufferSize sets the maximum size of memory that is allocated in bytes. When using the collated file handling, memory is allocated for the data in the thread. The user can check whether OpenMPI is compiled with threading support by the following command ompi_info -c | grep -oE "MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE*"
For Ubuntu Linux, its openmpipackage has threading activated from version 17.04 (codename zesty) onwards, the first Ubuntu version that uses OpenMPI v2 (2.0.2). For OpenMPI, threading support is not set by default prior to version 2, but is generally switched on from version 2 onwards. Without it, the simulation will “hang” or crash. But it requires threading support to be enabled in the underlying MPI. mpirun -np 2 foamFormatConvert -parallel -fileHandler uncollatedĪn example case demonstrating the file handling methods is provided in: $FOAM_TUTORIALS/IO/fileHandling Threading SupportĬollated file handling runs faster with threading, especially on large cases. setting the FOAM_FILEHANDLER environment variable.Ī foamFormatConvert utility allows users to convert files between the collated and uncollated formats, e.g.using the -fileHandler command line argument to the solver.over-riding the global OptimisationSwitches in the case controlDict file.The fileHandler can be set for a specific simulation by: If the file exceeds this buffer size scheduled transfer is used. - masterUncollated: non-blocking buffer size. If set to 0 or not sufficient for the file size threading is not used. - collated: thread buffer size for queued file writes. uncollated (default), collated or masterUncollated The controls for the file handling are in the OptimisationSwitches of the global etc/controlDict file: OptimisationSwitches NFS (Network File System) is not needed when using the collated format and, additionally, there is a masterUncollated option to write data with the original uncollated format without NFS. The file writing can be threaded allowing the simulation to continue running while the data is being written to file - see below for details. For large parallel cases, it avoids limits on the number of open files imposed by the operating system. The new format produces significantly fewer files - one per field, instead of N per field, where N is the total number of processors. The work was carried out by Mattijs Janssens, in collaboration with Henry Weller (see contributors). The files are stored in a single directory named processors. In July 2017, the new collated file format was introduced to OpenFOAM-dev in which the data for each decomposed field (and mesh) is collated into a single file that is written (and read) on the master processor. Processor directories are named processorN, where N is the processor number. When an OpenFOAM simulation runs in parallel, the data for decomposed fields and mesh(es) has historically been stored in multiple files within separate directories for each processor.
