Well,
the problem is that I don't know how to do any of these things, so more
explicitly:
- does OpenMPI accept any environment variable that prevents binding
like MV2_ENABLE_AFFINITY does on MVAPICH2?
- what is the default mca param file? Is it a runtime file? or a
configuration file? how do

Hi,
thanks a lot for your quick answers, and I see my error, it is
"--bind-to none" instead of "--bind-to-none".
However, I need to be able to run "mpirun -np 2" without any binding
argument and get a "--bind-to none" behaviour. I don't know if I can
export an environment variable to do that,
Note that the lama mapper described in those slides may not work as it hasn't
been maintained in a while. However, you can use the map-by and bind-to options
to do the same things.
If you want to disable binding, you can do so by adding "--bind-to none" to the
cmd line, or via the MCA param "hw

Actually doing affinity correctly for hybrid got easier in OpenMPI 1.7 and
newer, In the past you had to make a lot of assumptions, stride by node etc,
Now you can define a layout:

Hi,
after compiling and installing OpenMPI 1.8.1, I find that OpenMPI is
pinning processes onto cores. Although this may be
desirable on some cases, it is a complete disaster when runnning hybrid
OpenMP-MPI applications. Therefore, I want to disable this behaviour,
but don't know how.
