Running the Connector on SLURM HPCC

Follow the instructions in the installation guide, checking that the containers run using the Singularity or Apptainer system on your HPCC. Make sure you login using X-Window forwarding (e.g., ssh -X username@hpcc.example.com).

MESA

salloc -n 16 -t 8:00:00 --x11 will request 16 CPUs for 8 hours including an X11 binding so you can inspect the simulation as it runs. Once your job launches, you can run the container. Once in the container, cd to connector25/mesa-connector/template_binary_dev. Run ./mk then ./rn. You should see MESA begin to compute the evolution. The X-window based plots should also begin to display after some time.

STIR

MESA + STELLA

salloc -n 16 -t 8:00:00 --x11 will request 16 CPUs for 8 hours including an X11 binding so you can inspect the simulation as it runs. Once your job launches, you can run the container. Once in the container, cd to connector25/mesa-connector/stella. Run XXX then XXX. You should see MESA begin to compute the evolution. The X-window based plots should also begin to display after some time.

TARDIS

salloc -n 32 -t 1:00:00 will request 32 CPUs for 1 hour. Once your job launches, you can run the container. Once in the container, cd to connector25/tardis-connector/. Run conda activate tardis then ipython tardis_run.py. You should see a progress bar and text log output.
