Hi everyone,
I am trying to configure and add a new machine (cluster) into my Simfactory machine database. (.../simfactory/mdb/machinses/).
However, I do not know what exactly what the following variables or abbreviations are in the .ini file: spn, mpn. I have looked up values given to these in different machine files and found that they are not the same for all machines. Which brings me to the question of what they are so I can give to them the correct values relevant to/for the new machine that I want to add.
I understand ppn represents the number *p*rocessors *p*er *n*ode or number of cores per node (SimfactoryAdvancedTutorial) https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simulation_Factory_Advanced_Tutorial . On this one, what exactly should determine the value for *min-ppn* as far as the machine being defined is concerned? Or the min-ppn's value doesn't depend on the machine?
Thank you in advance fr your help.
