Message 38410 - Posted: 24 Mar 2019, 19:08:55 UTC

Running Mint 19.1
Somehow I seem to have cvmfs reporting it is running OK.
Having had issues with Singularity when trying to use the Debian guide I thought I would try the version in the Mint repository.

End result is that with an app_config running 8 * 4t each with 3300MB allocated on 32t 32GB rig, all seems well for 15 Mins or so then computation error and log showing "Output file missing"

I am guessing that this is a permissions issue so I am hoping one of you knows a quick fix

Meanwhile I found https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=4396&postid=34494 which seems like my next try if you think I should start over.

Thoughts anyone?

This is not SLC6, need to run with Singularity....
Checking Singularity...
Singularity is installed
copy /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/5/shared/input.tar.gz
copy /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/5/shared/copy_2LbbWw
copy /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/5/shared/ATLAS.root_0
copy /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/5/shared/RTE.tar.gz
copy /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/5/shared/start_atlas.sh
export ATHENA_PROC_NUMBER=2;start atlas job with 
Testing the function of Singularity...
check singularity with cmd:singularity exec -B /cvmfs /cvmfs/atlas.cern.ch/repo/images/singularity/x86_64-slc6.img hostname

Singularity isnt working...


Looks like Singularity is broken. Did you use version 2.4.2? That guide should work and 2.4.2 been great for my host.

...running 8 * 4t each with 3300MB allocated......
Thoughts anyone?
I think your system is overloaded even when you have 32GB RAM.

For ATLAS-native you need 1900MB of RAM for each worker=thread. 8 * 4 * 1900 > 32GB.

still playing with singularity

The thread at https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=4875&postid=37372#37372 seems to suggest that native Atlas requires 2100MB + 300MB*nCPUs. Hence the 3300 chosen

Sure you did not only install CVMFS but it is also configured correctly?
Do you get this output when you run "cvmfs_config probe"?
Probing /cvmfs/atlas.cern.ch... OK
Probing /cvmfs/atlas-condb.cern.ch... OK
Probing /cvmfs/grid.cern.ch... OK
Probing /cvmfs/cernvm-prod.cern.ch... OK

It's just that it makes no sense to check for a singularity error if CVMFS is not working since singularity needs files from the CVMFS repository.

Your's is OK if you only run ATLAS.
cernvm-prod is only necessary for Theory native.
Accidentally left it in the list.

Could you run the suggested test command:
singularity exec -B /cvmfs /cvmfs/atlas.cern.ch/repo/images/singularity/x86_64-slc6.img hostname

This should print your hostname.
If you don't want to post it here, just confirm that it is the command's output.

Hmmm not right now.

When following the guide I mentioned in my first post re: Singularity, it all falls apart after that slightly modified download is unzipped into the /home/username folder. I have been looking around for what and where to cd to in order to "./configure --prefix=/usr/local"

Singularity install:

sudo wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/xenial.us-ca.full | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list
sudo apt-get install -y singularity-container


And a
singularity --version

will return the version if installed correctly.

Now having installed singularity using :

sudo wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/bionic.us-ca.full | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list (I am on Mint 19.1 so Bionic on Ubuntu)

Version shows fine

The answer to your question is yes

It is an older version but.......

Am currently running another 8 and progress so far even after a couple of re-starts is beyond where I was before having reached 25% in around 45 mins on a pair of E5-2670's

BoincTasks is reporting cpu just now @ 237% but it is climbing so maybe when I watch an undisturbed run it will improve
