Dear Nest users,
I am fairly new to Nest having used it only for a few months and it has been working
without any problems on my PC running Linux. Recently I was given access to a PDC where I
have been submitting jobs but I am encountering a problem with my model. I'm running
Python 3.7.3 and Nest 2.18.
On both my PC and on the PDC, I run the following python script:
------------------------------
import Nest
For counter in range(0,10):
nest.resetkernel()
___run___script
print(result)
------------------------------
I execute this with "srun -n=1 python3 run.py"
This outputs 10 numbers, ranging from 0.35-0.4.
On the PDC, i run the same scripts but without the for loop:
------------------------------
import Nest
nest.resetkernel()
___run___script
print(result)
------------------------------
I execute this with "srun -n=10 python3 run.py"
this outputs 10 numbers, but this time much smaller around 0.04.
I am not doing any file operations, nor any MPI communication between the tasks and I am
genuinely confused as to how submitting multiple tasks can yield a different result than a
single task.
Has anyone encountered anything similar?
Regards
Johan Liljefors
