## Quickstart

This is a quickstart guide of how you can typically use this *LabInstance to deploy MPI programs*

- Working Directory

> /project

- Default user for MPI

> mpi

- The host file that contains addresses of connected workers can created with:

> IP_ADDR=$(ip addr show | grep "inet " | grep  "eth0" | awk '{print $2}')
>
> nmap -sP $IP_ADDR  | grep ondemand_mpi_worker | awk  -F "[()]" '{ for (i=2; i<NF; i+=2) print $i }' > /project/hosts

- Compile

> mpicc -o /project/mpi_hello_world examples/mpi_hello_world.c

- run the MPI hello world program

> sudo -u mpi mpirun -n 10 -f /project/hosts  /project/mpi_hello_world


---
**NOTE:** copy hello world to all clients

```bash
# scp hello wrold to all clients. sudo -u mpi for auto scp connect. see /home/mpi/.ssh 
while read -r line; 
 do 
   sudo -u mpi scp /project/mpi_hello_world mpi@$line:/project/mpi_hello_world
done < /project/hosts
```
