Memory issues on Ada

If you run the model on Ada (at Idris), after the compilation, you have to follow these steps to resolve memory issues with ORCHIDEE-MICT on Ada:

1. Use intel/2016.2:

module load intel/2016.2

2. In libIGCM_sys/libIGCM_sys_ada.ksh, modify:

#- HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND                                                                                                                                                         
if ( [ "X${LOADL_STEP_TYPE}" = "XPARALLEL" ] || [ "X${LOADL_STEP_TYPE}" = "XSERIAL" ] ) ; then
  typeset -r HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND=${HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND:="/usr/bin/time poe"}
else
  typeset -r HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND=${HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND:="/usr/bin/time mpirun"}
fi

into:

#- HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND                                                                                                                                                         
if ( [ "X${LOADL_STEP_TYPE}" = "XPARALLEL" ] || [ "X${LOADL_STEP_TYPE}" = "XSERIAL" ] ) ; then
  typeset -r HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND=${HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND:="/usr/bin/time mpirun"}
else
  typeset -r HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND=${HOST_MPIRUN_COMMAND:="/usr/bin/time mpirun"}
fi

3. Before creating the Job:

3.1 In libIGCM/AA_job, modify:

#-Q- ada # @ job_type = parallel

into:

#-Q- ada # @ job_type = mpich

3.2 In config.card, modify:

OOL= (orchidee_ol, orchidee_ol, 63MPI)

into:

OOL= (orchidee_ol, orchidee_ol, 63MPI, 4OMP)

4. Launch ins_job from libIGCM to create the Job

5. In the Job, add more memory (up to 14gb). Modify:

# @ as_limit = 3.5gb

into:

# @ as_limit = 10gb
