Usage

Load the necessary modulefiles. Turbmole has two execution modes. By default it used the SMP version (single node), but it an also run as MPI on multiple nodes on the cluster. To run the MPI version, the variable PARA_ARCH needs to be set to MPI. If it is empty, does not exist or set to SMP, it uses the SMP version.

export PARA_ARCH=MPI
module load turbomole/7.6

TmoleX GUI

TmoleX is a GUI for TURBOMOLE which allows to build a workflow. Also it aids in building of the initial structure and the visualisation of results. 

To run the TmoleX GUI you must connect with X11 forwarding (ssh -Y ...).

module load turbomole/tmolex2022

Job Script Examples

Note that some calculation run only in a certain execution mode, please consult the manual. Here all execution modes are listed.

1. MPI . Serial version. The calculations run serial and run only on one node.

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -p standard96
#SBATCH -N 1 
#SBATCH --mem-per-cpu=1.5G

module load turbomole/7.6

jobex -ri -c 300 > result.out

2. SMP Version, it can only run on one node. Use one node and use all CPUs:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -p standard96
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=96 

export PARA_ARCH=SMP
module load turbomole/7.6

export PARNODES=$SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK

jobex -ri -c 300 > result.out

3. MPI version. The MPI binaries have a _mpi suffix. To use the same binary names as the SMP version, the path will be extended to TURBODIR/mpirun_scripts/. This directory symlinks the binaries to the _mpi binaries. Here we run it on 7 8 nodes with all 96 cores:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -p standard96
#SBATCH -N 78
#SBATCH --tasks-per-node =96

export SLURM_CPU_BIND=none  
export PARA_ARCH=MPI
module load turbomole/7.6
 
export PATH=$TURBODIR/mpirun_scripts/`sysname`/IMPI/bin:$TURBODIR/bin/`sysname`:$PATH
export PARNODES=${SLURM_NTASKS}

jobex -ri -c 300 > result.out

24. Open MP Version, here we need to set the OMP_NUM_THREADS variable. Again it uses 7 8 nodes with 96 cores. We use the standard binaries with Open MP, do not use the mpi binaries. If OMP_NUM_THREADS is set, then it uses the Open MP version.

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -p standard96
#SBATCH -N 78
#SBATCH --tasks-per-node =96

export SLURM_CPU_BIND=none  
export PARA_ARCH=MPI
module load turbomole/7.6

export PARNODES=${SLURM_NTASKS}
export OMP_NUM_THREADS=${SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK}

jobex -ri -c 300 > result.out

3. SMP Version, it can only run on one node. Use one node and use all CPUs:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -p standard96
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=96 

export PARA_ARCH=SMP
module load turbomole/7.6

export PARNODES=$SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK

jobex -ri -c 300 > result.out
