.. program:: qp_tunnel
|
|
|
|
Establishes a tunnel to allow communications between machines within
|
|
different networks, for example multiple MPI slave jobs running on
|
|
different clusters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
qp_tunnel [-g] (ADDRESS|EZFIO_DIR)
|
|
|
|
``EZFIO_DIR`` is the name of the |EZFIO| directory containing the data,
|
|
and ``ADDRESS`` is the address of another tunnel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -h, --help
|
|
|
|
Displays the help message
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -g, --get-input
|
|
|
|
Download the EZFIO directory from the remote instance of qp_tunnel.
|

Imagine you have two clusters, C1 and C2. Each cluster is accessible via SSH
|
|
on a front-end named respectively F1 and F2. Groups of nodes N1 and N2 have
|
|
been reserved by the batch scheduling system on both clusters.
|
|
Each node in N1 is on the same network as the other nodes of N1, but they
|
|
can't access the network on which the nodes of N2 are.
|
|
|
|
1) Start a parallel simulation on the cluster C1, running on nodes N1.
|
|
We assume that there is a shared file system, such that F1 can access
|
|
the EZFIO directory. We also assume that F1 can communicate with the
|
|
nodes of N1.
|
|
|
|
2) Run a tunnel on the front-end F1 and keep it running:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
me@f1 $ qp_tunnel my_directory.ezfio
|
|
Connect to:
|
|
tcp://31.122.230.47:42379
|
|
Ready
|
|
|
|
3) On the front-end F2, run another instance connecting to the other one,
|
|
which will fetch the |EZFIO| directory:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
me@f2 $ qp_tunnel --get-input tcp://31.122.230.47:42379
|
|
Connect to:
|
|
tcp://31.122.209.139:42379
|
|
Communication [ OK ]
|
|
Getting input... my_directory.ezfio ...done
|
|
Ready
|
|
|
|
4) Keep the tunnel running, and you can now run a slave simulation within the
|
|
nodes N2.
