Hello.
I have installed quantum espresso with GPU support on a system.
Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-135-generic x86_64)
System Configuration:
Processor: Intel Xeon Gold 5120 CPU 2.20 GHz (2 Processor)
RAM: 96 GB
HDD: 6 TB
Graphics Card: NVIDIA Quadro P5000 (16 GB)
Usually, without GPU support, I submit jobs simply using: mpirun pw.x -inp
input.in > output.out. The output file in such cases includes these lines:
Parallel version (MPI), running on 28 processors
MPI processes distributed on 1 nodes
K-points division: npool = 2
R & G space division: proc/nbgrp/npool/nimage = 14
wavefunctions fft division: Y-proc x Z-proc = 2 7
wavefunctions fft division: task group distribution
#TG x Z-proc = 2 7
However, I do not understand what additional parameters are to be included
while running with GPU support to use it. I read about -ndiag, ntg, npool and
other options on the internet but could not understand how to use them for my
configuration.
I would be really grateful if someone could give more insight into using
these options to use GPU in my calculations fully.
Thanks in advance.
