Submit job from SUA (Subsystem for Unix based Application)

Thomas.varlet@MS — Wed, 06 May 2009 19:00:00 GMT

SUA is a very nice tool for porting Unix/Linux application, but it can also be used to submit job. You just have to set the path to the HPCS binary into your PATH variable :

With BASH :
export PATH=$PATH:"/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack/Bin"

With Korn Shell :
set PATH $PATH:"/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack/Bin"

And then you can submit job (copy from a Korn Shell windows on my head node):

$ set PATH $PATH:"/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack/Bin"
$   job.exe submit /workdir:\\\\hpcs-fr\\Shared /stdout:out-tv.txt /stderr:ett-tv.txt ping -n 50 hpcs-fr
Job has been submitted. ID: 37.
$ job.exe list

Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) Model Port to Windows

MichaelCole — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 13:04:00 GMT

The Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) project is a multi-year/multi-institution collaboration to develop a next generation regional forecast model and data assimilation system for operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) and atmospheric research. Under this project – a collaboration between The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), Microsoft Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., and The Portland Group, Inc (PGI) – a prototype version of WRF has been developed and demonstrated running in parallel using MPI on an AMD Opteron™ dual-core processor based server running Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003, Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack,. This preliminary report describes progress and issues encountered in porting WRF to an HPC cluster running Windows, using Microsoft Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA) and the PGI Fortran compiler.
