Re: [mpich-discuss] HPC cluster network utilisation monitoring tool ?
May also be of interest: https://github.com/octoshell/octoshell-v2 https://github.com/srcc-msu/job_statistics There are related papers on JobDigest and OctoShell Will probably want to determine what data to measure and keep, as many of the MPI performance monitoring tools may give significantly more information than you need.

In a previous life, I used NAGIOS (https://www.nagios.com/solutions/network-monitoring/) to monitor all kinds of things on servers. It should be capable of telling you port-level network utilization. As for your switch, you might need to find something specific to the hardware.
On the MPI side, profilers like mpiP (https://software.llnl.gov/mpiP/) can capture usage statistics and produce a report which you can look to for insights on how MPI is performing for your applications.

Hi,
I am mainly using MPICH via the mpiexec that ships with Paraview
I have a small test cluster and a 1Gbit switch.
What is the recommended way to determine and record the network utilization for a given MPI run?
I was hoping to gather such information over time and be in a proactive position to plan for network equipment update should I find that I start running into a situation where my network is becoming the performance bottleneck.
