Got it to work finally. The longer line doesn't work. But if I take off the -mca oob_tcp_if_include 192.168.0.0/16 part then everything works from every combination of machines I have. And as to any MPI having trouble, in my original posting I stated that I installed lam mpi on the same hardwar

-mca btl_tcp_if_include 192.168.0.0/16 -mca oob_tcp_if_include 192.168.0.0/16 should do the trick. Any MPI is going to have trouble with your arrangement - just need a little hint to help figure it out. On May 6, 2014, at 5:14 PM, Clay Kirkland wrote: > Someone suggested using some network a

Someone suggested using some network address if all machines are on same subnet. They are all on the same subnet, I think. I have no idea what to put for a param there. I tried the ethernet address but of course it couldn't be that simple. Here are my ifconfig outputs from a couple of machines:

Are these NICs on the same IP subnet, per chance? You don't have to specify them by name - you can say "-mca btl_tcp_if_include 10.10/16" or something. On May 6, 2014, at 4:50 PM, Clay Kirkland wrote: > Well it turns out I can't seem to get all three of my machines on the same > page. > Two

Well it turns out I can't seem to get all three of my machines on the same page. Two of them are using eth0 and one is using eth1. Centos seems unable to bring up multiple network interfaces for some reason and when I use the mca param to use eth0 it works on two machines but not the other. I

That last trick seems to work. I can get it to work once in a while with those tcp options but it is tricky as I have three machines and two of them use eth0 as primary network interface and one uses eth1. But by fiddling with network options and perhaps moving a cable or two I think I can get

Are you using TCP as the MPI transport? If so, another thing to try is to limit the IP interfaces that MPI uses for its traffic to see if there's some kind of problem with specific networks. For example: mpirun --mca btl_tcp_if_include eth0 ... If that works, then try adding in any/all othe
