My understanding is that MPI tasks will be launched inside a singularity container.

In a typical environment, mpirun spawns an instance of the orted on each node, and then each orted daemon (or mpirun on the local node) fork&exec the MPI tasks (a.out)


With singularity, orted would fork&exec a container running a.out

(not sure if it is one container per task, or one container per node)


Cheers,


Gilles

Greetings,

Could someone explain, or point to documentation that explains, what the --with-singularity option enables with regard to OpenMPI support for singularity containers?

Thanks.
