Notice that the shell prompt changes from to to indicate that you are now on a compute node (e.g., d05-08). Maximum number of variables is set to 5,000 see help set_maxvar. More than 2 billion observations are allowed see help obs_advice. Unicode is supported see help unicode_advice.

Once you are granted the resources and logged in to a compute node, load the module and then enter stata-mp: module load gcc/8.3.0 stata stata-mp _ _ _ _ _ (R) /_ / _/ / _/ _/ / /_/ / /_/ 16.1 Copyright 1985-2019 StataCorp LLC Statistics/Data analysis StataCorp 4905 Lakeway Drive MP - Parallel Edition College Station, Texas 77845 USA 800-STATA-PC 97 97 (fax) Stata license: 20-user 8-core network, expiring Serial number: 555555555555 Licensed to: Center for Advanced Research Computing University of Southern California Notes: 1. You can find your project ID in the CARC User Portal. Also make sure to substitute your project ID, which is of the form _. Make sure to change the resource requests (the -time=2:00:00 -cpus-per-task=8 -mem=16GB -account= part after your salloc command) as needed, such as the number of cores and memory required. To run Stata interactively on a compute node, first use Slurm's salloc command to reserve job resources on a node: salloc -time=2:00:00 -cpus-per-task=8 -mem=16GB -account= salloc: Pending job allocation 24316 salloc: job 24316 queued and waiting for resources salloc: job 24316 has been allocated resources salloc: Granted job allocation 24316 salloc: Waiting for resource configuration salloc: Nodes d05-08 are ready for job For more information on jobs, see our Running Jobs user guide. Processes left running on login nodes may be terminated without warning. Unless you are only running a small test, please make sure to run your program as a job interactively on a compute node.
Conversely, using Stata interactively on a compute node is necessary for more intensive work like exploring data, testing models, and debugging.Ī common mistake for new users of HPC clusters is to run heavy workloads directly on a login node (e.g., or ). Using Stata on the login node should be reserved for installing packages and non-intensive work. Running Stata in interactive modeĪfter loading the module, to run Stata interactively on the login node, simply enter stata-mp and this will start a new Stata session. Please note that we do not currently support the use of the Stata GUI on CARC systems.
#STATA VERSIONS LICENSE#
The current Stata license allows up to 8 cores. The MP version of Stata enables use of large datasets as well as multiple cores for parallel computation. The Stata module provides multiple executables, but for HPC uses you will most likely want to use the stata-mp executable when using Stata on CARC systems. For reproducibility purposes, it is also a good practice to include a version statement like this in your Stata scripts (do-files), based on the version used to develop the script. To check the version currently being used, enter version within Stata. If needed, you can use previous versions by entering the command version within Stata (e.g., version 13).
#STATA VERSIONS SOFTWARE#
For either mode, first load the corresponding software module: module load stataĬurrently, this module loads Stata 16.1. You can use Stata in either interactive or batch modes. You can find instructions for this in the Getting Started with Discovery or Getting Started with Endeavour user guides. Using Stata on CARC systemsīegin by logging in. Stata is a proprietary software package for statistics and data science.
