Re: [OMPI users] hostfile without slots

Hi, In addition to Ralph's explanation, you can change the policy of this behavior using MCA param orte_set_default_slots. For example, by setting "none" you can disable the auto detection of slots count, which means it's compatible with openmpi-1.6.X. Regards, Tetsuya Mishima

There is no problem with using numerical host names - we don’t care so long as your system can resolve them. The difference you are seeing relates to a change in behavior created during the 1.7 series. If you don’t specify the #slots on a host, then we automatically set it to the number of detec

I think if you boot the mpi on the host machine, and than run your program with 8 thread (mpirun -np 8 ) , the operating system will automatically distribute it to the cores. Jeff Pummill wrote: I am doing some testing on a variety of 8-core nodes in which I just want to execute a couple of e

So, it appears that for a machine of this type (dual quad core cpu's), this approach would be correct for my tests... [jpummill@n1 bin]$ more my-hosts n1 slots=8 max_slots=8 and subsequently, launch two jobs in this configuration... /home/jpummill/openmpi-1.2.2/bin/mpirun --hostfile my-hosts -n

The cleaner way to define such an environment is by using the max- slots and/or slots options in the hostfile. Here is a FAQ entry about how Open MPI deal with these options (http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/? category=running#mpirun-scheduling). george. On Oct 26, 2007, at 10:52 AM, Jeff Pumm
