Description
When working in parallel, [cluster]
is required to specify the
group of computers that will be used. It is required even if you are
only invoking multiple processes on one computer.
Options
Name = CLUSTER_NAME
The reference name of this cluster.
Members = NODE_NAME NODE_NAME …
A list of nodes that comprise the cluster. Each node is separated by
at least one space. At the current time, all nodes specified by
Members
option must run the same type of operating system
(i.e. all Windows or all Linux/Mac OS X). The platform versions
don’t matter (i.e. you can mix Windows XP and 7).
Example
[cluster] Name = c1 Members = n1 n2 n3 |
Description
When working in parallel, [node]
is required for every computer
that will be used. The options that are required differ, depending on
the underlying operating system and whether you are working locally or
remotely.
Options
Name = NODE_NAME
The reference name of this node.
CPUnbr = INTEGER | [INTEGER:INTEGER]
If just one integer is passed, the number of processors to use. If a range of integers is passed, the specific processors to use (processor counting is defined to begin at one as opposed to zero). Note that using specific processors is only possible under Windows; under Linux and Mac OS X, if a range is passed the same number of processors will be used but the range will be adjusted to begin at one.
ComputerName = COMPUTER_NAME
The name or IP address of the node. If you want to run locally, use
localhost
(case-sensitive).
UserName = USER_NAME
The username used to log into a remote system. Required for remote runs on all platforms.
Password = PASSWORD
The password used to log into the remote system. Required for remote runs originating from Windows.
RemoteDrive = DRIVE_NAME
The drive to be used for remote computation. Required for remote runs originating from Windows.
RemoteDirectory = PATH
The directory to be used for remote computation. Required for remote runs on all platforms.
DynarePath = PATH
The path to the ‘matlab’ subdirectory within the Dynare installation directory. The default is the empty string.
MatlabOctavePath = PATH_AND_FILE
The path to the MATLAB or Octave executable. The default value is
matlab
.
SingleCompThread = BOOLEAN
Whether or not to disable MATLAB’s native multithreading. The default
value is true
. Option meaningless under Octave.
Example
[node] Name = n1 ComputerName = localhost CPUnbr = 1 [node] Name = n2 ComputerName = dynserv.cepremap.org CPUnbr = 5 UserName = usern RemoteDirectory = /home/usern/Remote DynarePath = /home/usern/dynare/matlab MatlabOctavePath = matlab [node] Name = n3 ComputerName = dynserv.dynare.org CPUnbr = [2:4] UserName = usern RemoteDirectory = /home/usern/Remote DynarePath = /home/usern/dynare/matlab MatlabOctavePath = matlab |
