You cannot build containers on Frontera because you do not have sudo and --fakeroot does not work.
 +
--fakeroot did not work for me in Frontera because it could not find me as a user.
 +
<pre>
 +
$ singularity build --fakeroot hello.sif ubunutu18-mvapich.def
 +
FATAL:  could not use fakeroot: no user entry found for llocsin
 +
</pre>
 +
 
 +
--remote flag is just a step away from building it yourself and uploading it to a remote. Just do that.
 +
 
 +
To build from scratch:
 +
# Install Singularity
 +
# Pull a Basic Image and use the --sandbox flag
 +
# Install desired dependencies in the sandbox
 +
## Build Dependencies
 +
## Correct MPI Library and set environment variables
 +
## Add any files you want to run
 +
# Create a Definition File - Transferring the setup commands that you tested in the build file into a definition file.
 +
# Upload Dependency file to Singularity Container Library or Singularity Hub
 +
 
 +
 
 +
To retrieve your container, just pull from library://USER/PATH or sub://USER/PATH (see basic commands > pull)
 +
 
 +
 
 +
====== MPI ======
 +
Singularity uses two methods.
 +
1. Bind Approach (cannot be used)
 +
You cannot use the bind on a Frontera.
 +
2. Hybrid/Host Approach [https://sylabs.io/guides/3.6/user-guide/mpi.html#hybrid-model]
 +
 
 +
For MPI containers, you have to use the hybrid approach. Frontera does not support bind.

This page is to document the steps involved in enabling the CyberShake codebase to run in a container environment.

Selection of Containers

The available HPC Containers at the time of selection were Singularity, Charliecloud, and Shifter. Between the 3 of these container technologies, Singularity was widely adapted and had more open source tools. Because of this wide adaptation the module already existed in the Frontera system. Singularity has built-in support for different MPI libraries from OpenMPI, MPICH, and IntelMPI to name a few. Shifter, although light weight, is highly reliant on MPICH ABI. This would require site-specific MPI libraries to be copied to the container at runtime. Charliecloud does not have a module in Frontera.

Installing Singularity

Recommended for people who want to run Singularity locally or create there own custom containers. Use of premade containers does not require installation.

Install Dependencies

build-essential \
uuid-dev \
libgpgme-dev \
squashfs-tools \
libseccomp-dev \
wget \
pkg-config \

Download Go
export VERSION=1.13.5 OS=linux ARCH=amd64 && \
wget https://dl.google.com/go/go$VERSION.$OS-$ARCH.tar.gz && \
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzvf go$VERSION.$OS-$ARCH.tar.gz && \
rm go$VERSION.$OS-$ARCH.tar.gz


Set Up Go
echo 'export GOPATH=${HOME}/go' >> ~/.bashrc && \
echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/go/bin:${PATH}:${GOPATH}/bin' >> ~/.bashrc && \
source ~/.bashrc


Install Singularity

Check the Newest Release Version [1]

export VERSION=3.6.1 && # adjust this as necessary \
wget https://github.com/sylabs/singularity/releases/download/v${VERSION}/singularity-${VERSION}.tar.gz && \
tar -xzf singularity-${VERSION}.tar.gz && \
cd singularity
Check if Singularity Works
git clone https://github.com/sylabs/singularity.git && \
cd singularity && \
git checkout v3.5.2

Setting up a serial container (on your computer)

Get Image

singularity pull <source>*

$ singularity build myPythonContainer.sif library://default/ubuntu:latest
  • <sources> include Singularity Container Library (library), Singularity Hub (shub) and Docker Hub (docker).
Execute Command in from Outside Container

singularity exec imageName command

$ singularity exec myPythonContainer.sif cat /etc/lsb-release

singularity exec image_name command

$ singularity exec myPythonContainer.sif python3 helloWorld.py

Find Size of Container:

$ singularity cache list
  • Note: Singularity cannot run on the Login Node

Basic Singularity Commands

Pull - pulls a container image from a remote source.

$ sudo singularity pull <remote source>

<remote source>:

1. Singularity Container Services [2]

$ sudo singularity pull --name CONTAINER_NAME.sif library://USER/PULL_PATH:VERSION
  • Note: the path only needs to match the pull card. please see the remote website for example.

2. Singularity Hub [3]

$ sudo singularity pull --name CONTAINER_NAME.sif shub://USER/PULL_PATH:VERSION
  • Note: the path only needs to match the pull card. please see the remote website for example.

3. Docker Hub [4]

$ sudo singularity build CONTAINER_NAME.sif docker://USER/PULL_PATH:VERSION
  • Note 1: docker images have layers and it needs to be merged into 1 singularity image. For that to happen you MUST use: build
  • Note 2: the path only needs to match the pull card. please see the remote website for example.


Exec - executes an EXTERNAL COMMAND

$ singularity exec IMAGE_NAME.sif EXTERNAL_COMMAND


Shell - shells into an existing container

$ singularity shell IMAGE_NAME.sif
  • Note: Your home directory is mounted by default


Run - runs an image. Run is based on the Run Script parameters that were placed into the container when the image was built based the recipe

$ singularity run IMAGE_NAME.sif


Build (see build section for more details)

$ singularity build IMAGE_NAME.sif <source>

<source> include

  1. Another Image either docker or singularity
  2. Singularity definition file (use to be known as a recipe file), usually denoted with name.def


Note: You can shell into a docker UI - explore different containers without pulling or building

$ singularity shell docker://ubuntu

Using Prebuilt Containers or Building Containers

Prebuilt Containers

Basic Ubuntu Basic Ubuntu Container with Python

Frontera

Basic Ubuntu with Mvapich

Building Containers

You cannot build containers on Frontera because you do not have sudo and --fakeroot does not work. --fakeroot did not work for me in Frontera because it could not find me as a user.

$ singularity build --fakeroot hello.sif ubunutu18-mvapich.def 
FATAL:   could not use fakeroot: no user entry found for llocsin

--remote flag is just a step away from building it yourself and uploading it to a remote. Just do that.

To build from scratch:

  1. Install Singularity
  2. Pull a Basic Image and use the --sandbox flag
  3. Install desired dependencies in the sandbox
    1. Build Dependencies
    2. Correct MPI Library and set environment variables
    3. Add any files you want to run
  4. Create a Definition File - Transferring the setup commands that you tested in the build file into a definition file.
  5. Upload Dependency file to Singularity Container Library or Singularity Hub


To retrieve your container, just pull from library://USER/PATH or sub://USER/PATH (see basic commands > pull)


MPI

Singularity uses two methods. 1. Bind Approach (cannot be used) You cannot use the bind on a Frontera. 2. Hybrid/Host Approach [5]

For MPI containers, you have to use the hybrid approach. Frontera does not support bind.

Containers on Frontera

Serial Containers

1. Prepare

  1. Make helloWorld.py $ echo "print(\"Hello World\")" > helloWorld.py
  2. Install Module (only if using Supercomputer): $ module load tacc-singularity *Note: module save (if you plan to use singularity a lot)

2. Get a Singularity Image on Frontera (*Note: If you want to write a particular program, you must have the dependencies installed in the container) Options:

  1. By copying a image from your local to Frontera with scp
  2. Pull from the Computation Node
idev -N 1; singularity pull singularity pull library://libii/scec/ubuntu18.10-python3:sha256.522b070ad79309ef7526f87c34f0f8518e7d7acc6399aa6372fb0cf28fea25a1 
  • Note: This command works in a sbatch file.

Compile Program

Build or Pull a Singularity Image

The singularity image file NEED the same MPI library installed inside the container [6] mvapich preinstalled in this container

$ idev -N 1
$ singularity pull shub://mkandes/ubuntu-mvapich
  • Note: This work on Frontera. MPI Library: mvapich
Execute your command
$ ibrun singularity exec ubuntu-mvapich_latest.sif ./sum_sqrt 100000
