| Name: | nest_serial - Returns a non-distributed call of nest as a string
|
| Synopsis: | (sli-filename) nest_serial -> (string with shell command)
|
| Description: |
If nest was compiled with MPI it may be unsafe to directly call the binary to
obtain a non-distributed version. The command nest_serial looks up the appropriate
way to call nest and returns a suitable command as a string. The algorithm is as
follows:
1. if nest is not compiled with MPI, return "nest"
2. if sli command /mpirun is defined, return this with
the -np 1 equivalent
3. issue and error with the message that nest was compiled with MPI
but no method to call nest has been specified.
|
| Diagnostics: |
This function issues an error if NEST was compiled with MPI but is not aware of
a safe method to call a non-distributed version of nest.
|
| Examples: |
(hello.sli) nest_serial -> (mpirun -mca btl self,tcp -np 1 /home/dummy/nest/bin/nest hello.sli)
