Set up procedure on submit node

The GCC compiler suite version 4.8.3 is part of the standard linux installation. To enable other versions of the GCC compiler suite, you must first run the command:

module load gcc/<GCC compiler version>

Running the application

Running programs compiled using the GCC compiler suite is simply a matter of submitting the job file with a suitable submit file.

Universe = vanilla

Requirements = (Target.Opsys == "LINUX" && Target.Arch == "X86_64" && <HTCondor ClassAd>=?=True)
Request_Memory = 1000

Log = gnu.log
Output = gnu.out
Error = gnu.error
Notification = Error

Should_Transfer_Files = Yes
When_To_Transfer_Output = ON_EXIT

Executable = <gnu_executable>
Transfer_Executable = True
Transfer_Input_Files = <optional input files>

Queue

If your submit file is called submit.txt then your job can be submitted to HTCondor using the command condor_submit submit.txt.

Sample GNU compiler suite HTCondor jobs

  1. C++ code for printing “Hello World”, the current working directory and the GNU compiler version.
  2. C, C++ and Fortran codes for calculating Pi using n terms of the Gregory series.
