Update

Idphix now hosts a Nvidia K40 GPU along with the KNC Xeon Phi and a Infiniband host adapter.
The OS is Grid'5000's Debian stable

If needed one can get the Centos OS back using kadeploy.

Information below are mostly unrelevant with the Debian OS.

Overview

Idphix is a single socket Sandy Bridge machine, equipped with 1 MIC accelerator.

1x Intel Xeon E5-2650 (8 cores)
64 GB RAM
1x coprocesseur Intel Xeon Phi 5110P

The setup is the following: We use an internal network on the host (idphix) for the Xeon Phi: 192.168.1.0/24.

This gives the following scheme:

                          =======================================
                        | -------------             -----------  |
                        ||    host     |           |  Xeon Phi | |
                        ||   idphix    |           |idphix-mic0| |
Grid5000 network <---> eth0           mic0 <----> mic0         | |
                    172.16.21.6 192.168.1.254  192.168.1.1     | |
                        ||             |           |           | |
                        | -------------             -----------  |
                          =======================================

How to experiment ?

For now (2013-09-13) the operating system is a Centos 6 (OS officially supported by Intel for the Xeon Phi).

Use the machine as follows:

Connect to digitalis/grid5000

workstation$ ssh digitalis.grenoble.g5k

In case of any issue (network issue, connection hanging...) please read more info here or ask on the Digitalis mailing list.

Reserve the machine/run a job

digitalis$ oarsub -p "machine='idphix'" -l walltime=2 -I

Setup your access to the Xeon Phi

(This might not be relevant if your are using some level of abstraction (COI, ...)

WARNING: there is currently a bug due to the last version of Intel MPSS, please report any issue to the mailing list.

Make sure you created your G5K ssh keys (keys without passephrase protection, dedicated to G5K and stored in your NFS home directory)

Run:

idphix$ sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-setup-my-user

If you get the error:

Error: Cannot get your SSH keys, please run 'chmod 755 ~/.ssh && chmod 644 ~/.ssh/{authorized_keys,id_*.pub}'

Please run:

idphix$ chmod 755 ~/.ssh && chmod 644 ~/.ssh/{authorized_keys,id_*.pub}

Output should be:

idphix$ sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-setup-my-user 
*** Configure user pneyron:users (10106:8000) on mic0
*** Copy user files to mic0
id_rsa.pub                                    100%  420     0.4KB/s   00:00    
authorized_keys                               100%  916     0.9KB/s   00:00    
.profile                                      100%   62     0.1KB/s   00:00    
*** Force creation of pneyron:users on mic0 and fix file ownership and permission
Done

You shoud now be able to ssh to the coprocessor:

idphix$ ssh mic0
idphix-mic0$ uname -a
Linux idphix-mic0.grenoble.grid5000.fr 2.6.38.8-g5f2543d #2 SMP Tue Apr 30 14:05:06 PDT 2013 k1om k1om k1om GNU/Linux

Intel compiler and other tools

Intel tools (icc & co) are installed in /opt/intel

It is configured to use Inria's license server (FlexLM).

This licence server provides 2 tokens which are shared among all Inria's users. Only 2 compilations can be performed at a time.

If icc complains about the license (error message talking about FlexLM), please report the issue to digitalis@lists.grid5000.fr

Rebooting the MIC

If needed, you can reboot the MIC from within a exclusive job (doing so in shared job session would risk annoying other users).

oarsub -t exclusive -p "machine='idphix'" ....

Then, you will be able to run

sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-reboot

(no password should be requested).

Rebooting the MIC takes some time. You can look at the output of dmesg or miccrtl -s meanwhile.

Data on the mic: no persistence

Please mind the fact that data pushed to the mic are not persistent. Your home directory on idphix-mic0 could be emptied for various reasons.

Privileged commands

Currently, the following commands can be run via sudo in exclusive jobs:

sudo /usr/bin/whoami (provided for testing the mechanism, should return "root")
sudo /sbin/reboot
sudo /usr/bin/schedtool
sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-reboot
sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-pm

NB

sudo /usr/local/bin/mic-setup-my-user does not require an exclusive job.
PM setting are not reset automatically. Please everyone check the PM settings (using micctl --pm or the mic-pm script) before running experiments

Redeploy and get full (root) access to the machine/MIC

One can be root on the machine using kadeploy.

To redeploy your own instance of idphix default system (Centos), add '-t redeploy' to your oarsub command and run the following kadeploy command:

kadeploy -e idphix-default -m idphix -k

Then you should be able to do:

digitalis$ ssh root@idphix
idphix$ ssh mic0
idphix-mic$ whoami
root

At the end of the job, the machine will return to its default system environment.

Other experimental platforms with MICs

Grid'5000

4 nodes with 1 Xeon Phi each are available on Grid'5000 Nancy's site, in the Graphite cluster. See:

Irisa

Guillermo Andrade-barroso installed a Xeon Phi host server at INRIA Rennes. This server hosts 1 Intel® Xeon Phi™ 5110P (8 G, 1.053 GHz, 60 cores) under Debian 7.0 64 bits.

Access to this server is available for all INRIA members on demand.

The machine name is phileas.irisa.fr

Installed Intel Cluster Studio XE 2013.1 in /grid5000/software/. It comes with icc 14. (/grid5000 is a NFS mount, commonly usable by all machines)

Vtune is part of Intel Cluster Studio XE 2013.1, but needs more work to be fully functional.

Changed /opt/intel to be a directory containing symlinks to /grid5000/software/intel/*, so that Intel OpenCL SDK can be installed.
Installed rpms:
- svn
- ntp
Intalled Intel OpenCL SDK (intel_sdk_for_ocl_applications_xe_2013_r3_sdk_3.2.1.16712_x64)
- install-cpu+mic.sh

2014-04-08

New system image: idphix-default 20140408

This image:

upgrades the system to CentOS 6.5 (required to build Vtune kernel modules)
installs VNC server + twm + xterm + xeyes
brings support for Intel Vtune (disable nmi_watchdog + setup Vtune kernel modules)
installs MPSS version 3.2
adds script mic-pm to allow a user in an exclusive job to change the power-management settings of the mic
