"Understanding" isn't so important. At the end of the results, there is a number labeled "GLOPS". It looks like this:
The first column expresses some of the options used in the options (HPL.dat) file. The next two columns express the size in dimensions. The last column -- the one you want -- is the number of Gigaflops measured for that run. It's in scientific notation, meaning:
If the output were 3.42e-01, then you'd have:
Do you understand now?

As to how to configure this to run on multiple nodes, you have to (1) configure HPL.dat to run on mxn processors, where m and n are close together; so if you have a cluster containing 12 cores, optimal is normally m=3 and n=4. That's not always the case, but it typically is. (2) You must configure your MPI environment so that it runs on that many processors. How you do #2 depends on your MPICH software and setup. If you have a batch system like PBS or SGE, that further complicates the matter, as you need to queue the job with that number of processors. Sometimes with queuing engines, you can't easily dictate which nodes the job will run on. So if you have 6 nodes each with 4 cores, it might not be possible to say "run this on 3 nodes using all cores on each one". (But normally it's possible to say "run it on 3 nodes using 1 core on each one".)

Hi,
is it possible to check out the speed limits of a box without a remote peer for netio and stuff?
I transferred 1 Terrabyte last night, which is not really much and need to find the bottleneck. The remote server is soon going to retire, yet I need to copy the 8T to the new machine. This... (9 Replies)

I am working on a Linux server and want to check the cluster status. I dont know how many server is in cluster and what is the command to check. could you please help me to get the cluster status? (4 Replies)
Hello,
- How do I know if a filesystem is part of a cluster?
- Or do I have to check if the vg related to the fs is part of a cluster instead? if so, how do I check it?
- I would also need to check if there are vxfs type inside aix machines and if there are, how do I know if that type of... (2 Replies)
Hi, all
What would be the a,b,c in troubleshooting slow performance on RH box, I type and it became really slow, what commands or log files to examine. What parameters to check?
Thanks all

Hello Forum,
Well I am fairly new to this Solaris os thing. One thing I would like to check for system health and performance.
I know the codes like
prstat,vmstat,sar,iostat,netstat,prtdiag -v,
What else does a want to be sys admin have to look for when checking a solaris box?
I know... (3 Replies)
