vasp/5.5.4-omc submission script
Posted: Wed Mar 11, 2020 1:07 pm
Please can you help with vasp/5.5.4-omc submission script? I tried to submit jobs with same submission script as in vasp 5.5.4 but it doesn't work and it sends me the error message:
Primary job terminated normally, but 1 process returned a non-zero exit code.. Per user-direction, the job has been aborted.
mpirun detected that one or more processes exited with non-zero status, thus causing the job to be terminated.
The first process to do so was:
Process name: [[2821,1],21]
Exit code: 29
Submission script I use for vasp/5.5.4-omc is
#$ -S /bin/bash
#$ -q parallel
#$ -l node_type=10Geth*
#$ -l nodes=2
source /etc/profile
module load vasp/5.4.4-omc
mkdir OUTPUT
cd OUTPUT
for x in INCAR KPOINTS POTCAR POSCAR; do ln -s ../$x .; done
mpirun -np 16 vasp_std
rm INCAR KPOINTS POTCAR POSCAR
echo "Job finished at"
date
################### Job Ended ###################
exit 0
The script is same as for "plain" vasp/5.4.4 except for:
module load vasp/5.4.4-omc AND
mpirun -np 16 vasp_std
since I googled it and they suggest to add number of processes for running non default modules, in this case -np 16 as we have 16 cores per node on our computer cluster. However, 16 is number of cores/processes/nodes although not sure about it as I went through different interpretations. This matches the number of cores (32) I got in OUTCAR when working with vasp/5.4.4. or else it's -np 16 as it's meant to be number of cores/processes per node and I choose to work with l=nodes=2.
