[CP2K-user] [CP2K:18616] MPI and Containers

[Krack Matthias]

Hi

I have just checked in a README file<https://github.com/mkrack/cp2k/blob/master/tools/apptainer/README.md> for CP2K & Apptainer which might give some hints.

Best

Matthias

Hello List,

I have successfully built 2023.1 from the dockerfile that's included
with the source code. I have converted the container to singularity
and run that on our cluster.

Now, I'd like to use cp2k with MPI. I've followed the "hybrid"
approach where srun starts multiple containers on multiple nodes, and
the MPI inside the container works with the MPI on the hosts (and PMI,
and Slurm) to start up the application:
srun -vv --ntasks 2 /apps/local/cp2k/2022.2/cp2k.sif cp2k.psmp \
  -i H2O-64.inp -o cp2k_002.out

However, this does not seem to work:

GLOBAL| MPI I/O enabled T
GLOBAL| Total number of message passing processes 1
GLOBAL| Number of threads for this process 32
GLOBAL| This output is from process 0

I have also included a simple test program inside the same container,
and this seems to work (although there's an error message):

How would I go about debugging the MPI startup of cp2k?
Of course, any other ideas are welcome, too.

Thanks,

A.
