Pull Request Description

What issue does this change request address? (Use "#" before the issue to link it, i.e., #42.)

Closes #2386

What are the significant changes in functionality due to this change request?

Added a print of the out streams at the end of the finalizeSampler call in the MultiRun step to make sure that the "final" solution is printed if an out stream is requested in a MultiRun step


For Change Control Board: Change Request Review

The following review must be completed by an authorized member of the Change Control Board.

  • 1. Review all computer code.
  • 2. If any changes occur to the input syntax, there must be an accompanying change to the user manual and xsd schema. If the input syntax change deprecates existing input files, a conversion script needs to be added (see Conversion Scripts).
  • 3. Make sure the Python code and commenting standards are respected (camelBack, etc.) - See on the wiki for details.
  • 4. Automated Tests should pass, including run_tests, pylint, manual building and xsd tests. If there are changes to Simulation.py or JobHandler.py the qsub tests must pass.
  • 5. If significant functionality is added, there must be tests added to check this. Tests should cover all possible options. Multiple short tests are preferred over one large test. If new development on the internal JobHandler parallel system is performed, a cluster test must be added setting, in XML block, the node <internalParallel> to True.
  • 6. If the change modifies or adds a requirement or a requirement based test case, the Change Control Board's Chair or designee also needs to approve the change. The requirements and the requirements test shall be in sync.
  • 7. The merge request must reference an issue. If the issue is closed, the issue close checklist shall be done.
  • 8. If an analytic test is changed/added is the the analytic documentation updated/added?
  • 9. If any test used as a basis for documentation examples (currently found in raven/tests/framework/user_guide and raven/docs/workshop) have been changed, the associated documentation must be reviewed and assured the text matches the example.

@joshua-cogliati-inl ray test fails in Windows (but this merge request should not influence that test). Is it a random failure?

Yes, the ray test is not the most reliable test, so that is probably random.

This is required because redis released a new version on Oct 24 2024 (5.2) and this new version is not compatible with ray 2.6 (causing the Windows test to fail).

is there a reason behind the choice of this particular version?

this is needed when the printing of the dataset is not finished (e.g. point set) and this is triggered in the multi run step (right before exiting the step). We check here the index and the length in case the printing is finished before reaching the ned of the step

while the previous csv contains new rows the the bottom of the file as expected, this file contains some differences thorughout the rows, any possible explanation here?

@alfoa The proposed changes can resolve the issue. However, it can be confusing since these lines are almost similar to collection part in the same function. Could you provide more details why previous collection can not collect the final solution? Is it possible to make some modifications inside the optimizer to enable it? I have two concerns for the proposed approach:

  1. Two collections in the same function, which make it very confusing. Either add more explanations or find a way to avoid it.
  2. It is also very confusing in the FilePrint.py, since the new added lines to check the rlzIndex seem very unnecessary. I see the changes make the final collection possible, but it is really hard to understand why these lines are needed unless the developers fully understand the collections in the steps.

The lines in the FilePrint are not unnecessary. They are required when the collection in triggered on data objects that are not "collected/created" by the Optimizers.

Basically, the "SolutionExport" in the Optimizers is "updated" with the final solution after the collection is triggered (at the begin of the processing of the "last job"). So the Outstream is not invoked before exiting the Multirun loop.

This modification was the "minimal viable" solution to trigger an out stream call at the end of the multi run.

Maybe another approach could be to split the calls to the output collection:

  • Right after a Job is finished for data objects (DataObjects/Databases)
  • After the call to the finalizeActualSampling for OutStreams
