Thank you very much. I tried mpirun -np 6 -machinefile ./myh -mca pml cm ./b_eff and to amuse you mpirun -np 6 -machinefile ./myh -mca btl mx,sm,self ./b_eff with myh containing two host names and both commands went swimmingly. To make absolutely sure, I checked the usage of the myrinet po

Not knowing the openmpi build system, I am a little reluctant to say. But in most projects there is usually multiple paths that can be set at configure time. In most autoconfed projects it is called prefix. There are other ones that can be set for headers, etc. -Original Message- F

[OMPI users] myirnet problems on OSX

I had sent a message two weeks ago about this problem and talked with jeff at SC06 about how it might not be a OMPI problem. But it appears now working with myricom that it is a problem in both lam-7.1.2 and openmpi-1.1.2/1.1.1. Basically the results from a HPL run are wrong, Also cause

Jeff, Thanks for the response: mpirun --prefix /otherdir ... This might be good enough to do what you need. I don't think this will work (or is all that is needed to work). We are actually already using the --prefix option to mpirun and still run into the problem. When fluent is distr

[OMPI users] Build OpenMPI for SHM only

Hello, We have some clusters which consist of a large pool of 8-way nodes connected via ethernet. On these particular machines, we'd like our users to be able to run 8-way MPI jobs on node, but we *don't* want them to run MPI jobs across nodes via the ethernet. Thus, I'd like to configure an

Hi, I don't know if there is a way to do it in configure, but after installing you can go into the $prefix/lib/openmpi directory and delete mca_btl_tcp.* This will remove the tcp component and thus users will not be able to use it. Note that you must NOT delete the mca_oob_tcp.* files, as these

[OMPI users] MX performance problem on two processor nodes

Dear OpenMPI List: I am running the Myrinet MX btl with OpenMPI on MacOSX 10.4. I am running into a problem. When I run on one processor per node, OpenMPI runs just fine. When I run on two processors per node (slots=2), it seems to take forever (something is hanging). Here is
