Fix for Intel Systems in CS8.3 (Git Commit 7342705)

[StandardRANSUser001]

Dear Yvon,

I just wanted to verify something that I have observed on my version of CS8.3 on an Intel system, after updating my code to commit 7342705 (Main branch of git.).

The solver seems to be hanging on the last timestep, and I wanted to see whether you observed this on your system as well?
I haven't run any cases for a few weeks but I don't remember observing this before updating this change. Have you observed this as well?

I am trying to avoid consuming excess HPC resources, so I would like the solver to "finish" rather than hang on the final timestep. I am not sure if this is relevent, but this was observed on a machine with pbs submission scripts.

As always, any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Sean Hanrahan

Hello,

No, to my knowledge, we have not observed this on our machines. Which version of the Intel compilers do you use (on our side, We mainly use the 2022.2 LLVM-based compilers on one cluster, and the (much) older 18.1 on another machine.
I also tested with 24.1 on my local workstation.

The PBS aspect might be relevant (we have in the past observed some strange side-efffects such as a memory leak with some versions of SLURM, so although such side effects may be rare, they are not unheard of).

Best regards,

Yvan
