NCCL#

This workload (test_template_name is NcclTest) allows users to execute NCCL benchmarks within the CloudAI framework.

Usage Example#

Test TOML example:

name = "my_nccl_test"
description = "Example NCCL test"
test_template_name = "NcclTest"

[cmd_args]
docker_image_url = "nvcr.io#nvidia/pytorch:25.06-py3"

Test Scenario example:

name = "nccl-test"

[[Tests]]
id = "nccl.1"
num_nodes = 1
time_limit = "00:05:00"

test_name = "my_nccl_test"

Test-in-Scenario example:

name = "nccl-test"

[[Tests]]
id = "nccl.1"
num_nodes = 1
time_limit = "00:05:00"

name = "my_nccl_test"
description = "Example NCCL test"
test_template_name = "NcclTest"

  [Tests.cmd_args]
  docker_image_url = "nvcr.io#nvidia/pytorch:25.06-py3"
  subtest_name = "all_reduce_perf_mpi"
  iters = 100
