5. HPCG rules and validation

The HPCG run will produce a file named HPCG-Benchmark_<version>_<date>.txt You will need to copy this file to your .rslts file.

The HPCG output file shows the validity of the run on the following line:

HPCG result is VALID with a GFLOP/s rating of: [GFLOP/s]

The HPCG time will be visible in the output file as follows. For the run to be valid, the time value must exceed 1800 seconds (30 minutes):
