I know this is not essential, but I was playing with the accelerator environment variables. I am on a workstation with 4 tesla 1060s. I do not have ACC_DEVICE_NUM set and the code runs. If I set ACC_DEVICE_NUM=1 and run my code, it fails with this error:

"call to cuModuleLoadData returned error 300: Invalid Source"

Now, if I change ACC_DEVICE_NUM=2 or 3 or 4 the code executes again. If ACC_DEVICE_NUM=0 it executes as well (from the manual, it executes on the default device). Values of -1 and -2 succeed, but 5 gives me the expected error that I have only 4 devices attached. The negative vals I am not worried about, but ACC_DEVICE=1 is troubling.

Hi bollig,

This is odd since the "cuModuleLoadData returned error 300: Invalid Source" error occurs when you compile targeting a device with compute capability 1.3 (the default) but run on an older card with compute capability 1.1. So either this is a new error that I'm not aware of or your second card is old.

What's the output of the "pgaccelinfo" command?

Thanks,
Mat

Ahah, you're good at this!

pgaccelinfo tells me that I have 5 devices:

#0 Tesla
#1 nForce 780a SLI
#2-4 Tesla

I guess it makes sense that it errored out.

Thanks!
