NOTE:

Except for the network_stress and network_bidirectional tests,

these tests only apply to systems that install LSF incorporated with SLURM. The
network_stress

and network_bidirectional tests also function under

Standard LSF.

You can list the available tests with the ovp -l command:

$ ovp -l

Test list for perf_health:

cpu_usage

memory_usage

cpu

memory

network_stress

network_bidirectional

network_unidirectional

By default, the ovp command reports if the nodes passed or failed the given test. Use the ovp
--verbose

option to display additional information.

The results of the test are written to a file in your home directory. The file name has the form
ovp_node_date[rx].log

where node is the node from which the command was launched

and date is a date stamp in the form mmddyy. Subsequent test runs of the test are identified
with an r (for run) and a number; this prevents a log file from overwriting a previous one. The
--chdir=

option enables you to designate a directory different from your home directory as

the execution directory.

The following is an example of the CPU usage test:

$ ovp --verify=perf_health/cpu_usage
