| ## Building PIO2 Tests | ||
|
|
||
| To build both the Unit and Performance tests for PIO2, follow the general instructions for building PIO2 in either the [Installation](@ref install) page or the [Machine Walk-Through](@ref mach_walkthrough) page. During the Build step after (or instead of) the **make** command, type **make tests**. | ||
|
|
||
| ## PIO2 Unit Tests | ||
|
|
||
| The Parallel IO library comes with more than 20 built-in unit tests to verify that the library is installed and working correctly. These tests utilize the _CMake_ and _CTest_ automation framework. Because the Parallel IO library is built for parallel applications, the unit tests should be run in a parallel environment. The simplest way to do this is to submit a PBS job to run the **ctest** command. | ||
|
|
||
| For a library built into the example directory `/scratch/user/PIO_build/`, an example PBS script would be: | ||
|
|
||
| #!/bin/bash | ||
|
|
||
| #PBS -q normal | ||
| #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=4 | ||
| #PBS -N piotests | ||
| #PBS -e piotests.e$PBS_JOBID | ||
| #PBS -o piotests.o$PBS_JOBID | ||
|
|
||
| cd /scratch/user/PIO_build | ||
| ctest | ||
|
|
||
| The output from the unit tests will be reported in the piotests.o$JOBID file. This should look something like: | ||
|

||
| 100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 24 | ||
|
|
||
| Total Test time (real) = 30.80 sec | ||
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
|
||
| Another option would be to launch an interactive session, change into the build directory, and run the **ctest** command. | ||
|
|
||
| On Yellowstone, the unit tests can run using the **execca** or **execgy** commands as: | ||
|
|
||
| > setenv DAV_CORES 4 | ||
| > execca ctest | ||
|
|
||
| ## PIO2 Performance Test | ||
|
|
||
| To run the performance tests, you will need to add two files to the **tests/performance** subdirectory of the PIO build directory. First, you will need a decomp file. You can download one from our google code page here: | ||
| https://svn-ccsm-piodecomps.cgd.ucar.edu/trunk/ . | ||
| You can use any of these files, and save them to your home or base work directory. Secondly, you will need to add a namelist file, named "pioperf.nl". Save this file in the directory with your **pioperf** executable (this is found in the **tests/performance** subdirectory of the PIO build directory). | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| The contents of the namelist file should look like: | ||
|
|
||
| &pioperf | ||
|
|
||
| decompfile = "/u/home/user/piodecomp30tasks01dims06.dat" | ||
|
|
||
| pio_typenames = 'pnetcdf' | ||
|
|
||
| niotasks = 30 | ||
|
|
||
| rearrangers = 1 | ||
|
|
||
| nvars = 2 | ||
|
|
||
| / | ||
|
|
||
| Here, the second line ("decompfile") points to the path for your decomp file (wherever you saved it). For the rest of the lines, each item added to the list adds another test to be run. For instance, to test all of the types of supported IO, your pio_typenames would look like: | ||
|
|
||
| pio_typenames = 'pnetcdf','netcdf','netcdf4p','netcdf4c' | ||
|
|
||
| HDF5 is netcdf4p, and Parallel-Netcdf is pnetcdf. | ||
|
|
||
| To test with different numbers of IO tasks, you could do: | ||
|
|
||
| niotasks = 30,15,5 | ||
|
|
||
| (These tasks are the subset of the run tasks that are designated IO tasks) | ||
|
|
||
| To test with both of the rearranger algorithms: | ||
|
|
||
| rearrangers = 1,2 | ||
|
|
||
| (Each rearranger is a different algorithm for converting from data in memory to data in a file on disk. The first one, BOX, is the older method from PIO1, the second, SUBSET, is a newer method that seems to be more efficient in large numbers of tasks) | ||
|
|
||
| To test with different numbers of variables: | ||
|
|
||
| nvars = 8,5,3,2 | ||
|
|
||
| (The more variables you use, the higher data throughput goes, usually) | ||
|
|
||
| To run, submit a job with 'pioperf' as the executable, and at least as many tasks as you have specified in the decomposition file. On yellowstone, a submit script could look like: | ||
|
|
||
| #!/bin/tcsh | ||
|
|
||
| #BSUB -P P00000000 # project code | ||
| #BSUB -W 00:10 # wall-clock time (hrs:mins) | ||
| #BSUB -n 30 # number of tasks in job | ||
| #BSUB -R "span[ptile=16]" # run 16 MPI tasks per node | ||
| #BSUB -J pio_perftest # job name | ||
| #BSUB -o pio_perftest.%J.out # output file name in which %J is replaced by the job ID | ||
| #BSUB -e pio_perftest.%J.err # error file name in which %J is replaced by the job ID | ||
| #BSUB -q small # queue | ||
|
|
||
| #run the executable | ||
| mpirun.lsf /glade/p/work/katec/pio_work/pio_build/tests/performance/pioperf | ||
|
|
||
| The result(s) will look like a line in the output file such as: | ||
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
| RESULT: write BOX 4 30 2 16.9905924688 | ||
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
|
||
| You can decode this as: | ||
| 1. Read/write describes the io operation performed | ||
| 2. BOX/SUBSET is the algorithm for the rearranger (as described above) | ||
| 3. 4 [1-4] is the io library used for the operation. The options here are [1] Parallel-netcdf [2] NetCDF3 [3] NetCDF4-Compressed [4] NetCDF4-Parallel | ||
| 4. 30 [any number] is the number of io-specific tasks used in the operation. Must be less than the number of MPI tasks used in the test. | ||
| 5. 2 [any number] is the number of variables read or written during the operation | ||
| 6. 16.9905924688 [any number] is the Data Rate of the operation in MB/s. This is the important value for determining performance of the system. The higher this numbre is, the better the PIO2 library is performing for the given operation. | ||
