linpack

Caution

The linpack script is a portable, non-optimized version of the High Performance Linpack (HPL) benchmark. It is intended for verification purposes only, and the results should not be used for performance characterization.

The linpack script can be run against all available nodes using the following shell script: 

[root@cluster ~]#  linpack
You may need to wait for up to a minute to see its complete output; it may take several minutes on a large cluster.

While running linpack, you can view BeoStatus to verify that all nodes are taking part in the application. The following figure shows linpack running with BeoStatus open in both the GUI mode and the text mode.
