8.9. Deprecated options
These deprecated options will be removed in a future release.
| Deprecated Option | Replacement | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| 
 | 
 | Bind processes to cores | 
| 
 | 
 | Bind processes to processor sockets | 
| 
 | 
 | Map processes by core | 
| 
 | 
 | Launch processes one per node, cycling by node in a round-robin fashion. This spreads processes evenly among nodes and assigns ranks in a round-robin, “by node” manner. | 
| 
 | 
 | Map and rank processes round-robin by slot | 
| 
 | –map-by <obj>:PE=<#perproc>` | Bind each process to the specified number of CPUs | 
| 
 | 
 | Alias for  | 
| 
 | 
 | Display the detected resource allocation | 
| 
 | 
 | Display a detailed process map (mostly intended for developers) just before launch. | 
| 
 | 
 | Display a table showing the mapped location of each process prior to launch. | 
| 
 | 
 | Display the topology as part of the process map (mostly intended for developers) just before launch. | 
| 
 | 
 | Perform all necessary operations to prepare to launch the application, but do not actually launch it (usually used to test mapping patterns). | 
| 
 | 
 | Do not attempt to resolve interfaces — usually used to determine proposed process placement/binding prior to obtaining an allocation. | 
| 
 | 
 | Launch  | 
| 
 | 
 | Do not run any copies of the launched application on the same
node as  | 
| 
 | 
 | Do not oversubscribe any nodes; error (without starting any processes) if the requested number of processes would cause oversubscription. This option implicitly sets “max_slots” equal to the “slots” value for each node. (Enabled by default). | 
| 
 | 
 | On each node, launch this many processes | 
| 
 | 
 | On each node, launch this many processes times the number of
processor sockets on the node. The  | 
| 
 | 
 | Nodes are allowed to be oversubscribed, even on a managed system, and overloading of processing elements. | 
| 
 | 
 | On each node, launch one process | 
| 
 | –map-by ppr:<list>` | Comma-separated list of number of processes on a given resource type

 | 
 | Use a rankfile for mapping/ranking/binding | 
| 
 | 
 | Report any bindings for launched processes | 
| 
 | 
 | Tag all output with  | 
| 
 | 
 | Timestamp all application process output |

 | 
 | Use hardware threads as independent CPUs |
