Tutorial: Using MPI Tuner for Intel® MPI Library

Getting Started

Before using the MPI tuner for Intel® MPI Library, ensure that the library, scripts, and utility applications are installed. See the Intel® MPI Library Getting Started Guide for instructions.

The general workflow of using the MPI tuner is as follows:

  1. Create optimized configuration files through the mpitune utility.
  2. Use the configuration files through the –tune option of the mpiexec command during regular execution.

Usage instructions for specific tasks are given in detail further in this tutorial and rely on these general steps.

NOTE:
Before you use the MPI tuner, you can check the tasks to be executed. Use the --scheduler-only (-so) option to see the scope of mpitune work before the real run: > mpitune ... –so.
