[dongahn]

Creating a new subtask by breaking down from #2. Docker image with the make-check running.

@jmjwozniak: now the base image has been merged, you can take a look.

So inside SDK/ , I should create a new /docker/swift-t/Dockerfile ?

[j-woz]

That skeleton is almost complete, currently stuck on Tcl.

[j-woz]

Ok I think this works now - is someone interested in testing?

[j-woz]

Looking back at #2 it looks like I should have done OpenMPI first. I will do that now. How will we orchestrate testing both?

[dongahn]

@jmjwozniak: sorry for my late response. I was on vacation (and off the grid :-)

How will we orchestrate testing both?

I think testing orchestration needs to be done at the CI level, initially using GitHub Action. We probably don't need to run tests on applications that use both MPI implementations?

FYI -- related to the need for multiple MPI coverage: https://github.com/flux-framework/flux-core/issues/3592#issuecomment-816346144

[j-woz]

For multiple MPI, I meant separately testing OpenMPI and MPICH in totally different images/builds

[dongahn]

Yes, that makes a lot of sense.

[j-woz]

• [x] Merge multiple RUN lines into shell scripts
• [ ] Accept ARG for OpenMPI/MPICH
• [x] Remove sanity checks

I think this can be closed now since we have a separate issue tracking the MPI ARG todo. Please re-open if not.
