[slurm-users] How to check the bench mark capacity of the SLURM setup

[John Joseph]

Dear All, 

Good morning 

We have setup of slurm setup for a HPC setup of 4 node 

We want to do a stress test , guidnace requested for getting a  code which can test the functionality of the SLURM efficiency.  If there is such  a program, like to try out 

Guidance requested

Thanks 

Joseph john

Then please define clearly your question. The Slurm resource manager is
very efficient at handling hundreds or thousands of compute nodes with
good functionality!

Hi Ole, 

Thanks for the mail, and sorry for not properly explaining what info I was requesting, what actually I meant was that how could we could  do a check how the HPC system I set is working. 

Eg a program which can be run individually on a node, and comparing how the same code performed under the slurm system, Hope I was able to explain more clearly on my request 

And sorry once again of not posting the email more clearly 

Thanks 

Joseph John

Code performance is not related to Slurm resource manager. Maybe you just
want to find a benchmark code to run on your system. For example, the HPL
Linpack code, see https://www.top500.org/project/linpack/
