First out, htop:
htop:
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/htop/htop/1.0.1/htop-1.0.1.tar.gz
tar -xvf htop-1.0.1.tar.gz
cd htop-1.0.1/
./configure --prefix=/home/me/.htop
make
make install
It's as simple as that.
Add e.g.
alias htop='/home/me/.htop/bin/htop'to your ~/.bashrc
Note: this works on Scientific Linux (boron) 5.4 as well.
sinfo:
Update 13/03/2012:
Sinfo <0.0.44 has IPv6 enabled by default.
On sinfo >=0.0.45 you can disable IPv6 using ./configure --disable-IPv6
Sinfo is probably the snazziest cluster monitoring tool that I know of. Sure, ganglia etc. are nice too, but they run as web service. Sinfo is a 'simple' curses program, but building it on CentOS was a bit of a challenge.
Be aware that sinfo versions prior to 0.045 expect ipv6 to work -- by default ROCKS disables IPv6, so use sinfo 0.0.45 and above.
First boost:
(yum install boost-devel didn't do anything for me)
cd ~/tmp
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.49.0/boost_1_49_0.tar.gz/download
tar -xvf boost_1_49_0.tar.gz
cd boost_1_49_0/
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/usr
Edit Jamroot and add
using mpi ;
The space between mpi and ; is needed.
Symlink to your mpic++, e.g. if your mpic++ is in /opt/openmpi:
sudo ln -s /opt/openmpi/bin/mpic++ /usr/bin/mpic++
The following step takes a long time:
sudo ./b2 -a install --layout=versioned --build-type=complete
These days all the libboost libs are multithread aware (or so I hear), and in debian it turns out that the -mt.so libs are just symbolic links to the 'regular' libs.
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_signals.so /usr/lib/libboost_signals-mt.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_date_time.so /usr/lib/libboost_date_time-mt.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_serialization.so /usr/lib/libboost_serialization-mt.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization.so /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization-mt.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_regex.so /usr/lib/libboost_regex-mt.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libboost_signals.so.1.49.0 /usr/lib64/libboost_signals.so.1.49.0
Then asio
cd ~/tmp
wget "http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/asio/asio/1.5.3%20%28Development%29/asio-1.5.3.tar.bz2?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Fasio%2F&ts=1331441086&use_mirror=aarnet"
tar -xvf asio-1.5.3.tar.bz2
cd asio-1.5.3/
./configure
make
sudo make install
Then sinfo
cd ~/tmp
wget http://www.ant.uni-bremen.de/whomes/rinas/sinfo/download/sinfo-0.0.45.tar.gz
tar -xvf sinfo-0.0.45.tar.gz
cd sinfo-0.0.45/
./configure --disable-IPv6
The build should be fine.
Configuration:
you'll end up with
/usr/local/sbin/sinfod
/usr/local/bin/sinfo
You may want to make sure there are paths to them by adding the following to your ~/.bashrc:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
The changes take effect next time you log in to a shell, or just run
source ~/.bashrc
for immediate effect.
Also, create a file called /etc/default/sinfo with the following in it:
OPTS="--quiet --bcastaddress=192.168.1.255"
Start sinfod with
sinfod --quiet --bcastaddress=192.168.1.255
then check that it's running
ps aux | grep sinfod
If it's not running, then try
sinfod -F
If it gives something along the lines of
exception:open:address family not supported
you most likely
1) haven't enabled ipv6 for your interface and
2) didn't disable IPv6 during compilation and/or
3) used version<0.045
Check by doing ifconfig -- does it return both an ipv4 and an ipv6 address?
Enabling ipv6
Unless you know what you're doing, don't fiddle with the network interfaces on a production cluster -- network interfaces on a multinode cluster are typically highly tuned to minimise latency, so don't mess it up.
Anyway. First check your /etc/modules.conf and - if present - comment out
alias ipv6 offEdit your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
options ipv6 disable=1
DEVICE=eth1:0I just made up the IPV6ADDR, and took the IPV6_DEFAULTGW from my gateway machine (running debian, so ipv6 enabled by default)
IPADDR=192.168.1.111
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BOOTPROTO=none
MTU=1500
TYPE=Ethernet
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=yes
PEERDNS=yes
ONPARENT=yes
IPV6ADDR=fe80::2f0:4dff:f383:b44/64
IPV6_DEFAULTGW=fe80::2f0:4dff:fe83:a48/64
Assuming that your firewall is allowing traffic at port 60003 and free traffic in and out on 192.168.1.255 things should work fine.
Errors
Error (boost):
MPI auto-detection failed: unknown wrapper compiler mpic++
Please report this error to the Boost mailing list: http://www.boost.org
You will need to manually configure MPI support.
Solution:
make sure you've symlinked to your mpic++ instance in /usr/bin
e.g. if your mpic++ is in /opt/openmpi/bin/mpic++
sudo ln -s /opt/openmpi/bin/mpic++ /usr/bin/mpic++

Solution:
You need to make sure that the libs are found -- either symlink manually between your build directory and /usr/lib, or use boostrap.sh --prefix=/usr. See above for how to do it.

Solution: you've only got boost::asio installed, not the independent asio. See above for how to compile and install asio.
