    soap3-dp using the -c device id option with multiple gpus

    Has anyone managed to get soap3-dp's -c option to function correctly? If so what is the format?

    -c [GPU device ID] Specify the GPU device for running SOAP3-dp;

    2 GeForce GTX 780 Off | 0000:07:00.0 N/A

    I've tried -c 7 , -c 0000:07:00.0 , -c 07:00.0 to no avail. soap3-dp just uses the video card with the lowest bus-id regardless.

    I have tried various formats of the device identifier based on the nvidia-smi output bus id.

    Nevermind - SOLVED

    soap3-dp uses the device id as assigned by the CUDA driver installed.
    in my /usr/local/cuda/samples ran ./deviceQuery
    CUDA shows:
    deviceQuery, CUDA Driver = CUDART, CUDA Driver Version = 7.0, CUDA Runtime Version = 6.0,
    NumDevs = 3, Device0 = GeForce GTX 980, Device1 = GeForce GTX 980, Device2 = GeForce GTX 780
    Result = PASS
    device ids assigned 0 - 2.

    soap3-dp -c <0,1 or 2>

      Thanks for your reply, and fix!
      How does soap3 anyway performs compared to soap2 on cpu?

        Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
        by SEQadmin2


        I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


        Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

        From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
        by SEQadmin2


        Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


        The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
