2006-11-22 Thread Brock Palen
Feel free to correct me if im wrong. OMPI assumes you have a fast network and checks for them. If they are not found it falls back to tcp. So if you leave out the --mca etc etc It should use the mx if its available. Im not sure how MX responds if one of the hosts does not have a

Tim, yes, your suggestion makes sense. I didn't realize that would be a safe thing to do. Brian, I've verified that configuring with "--enable-mca-no-build=btl-tcp" prevents the tcp btl component from being built in the first place. Thanks for the help, -Adam Tim Prins wrote: Hi, I don't

Hi Lydia: errno 24 means "Too many open files". When we have seen this, I believe we increased the number of file descriptors available to the mpirun process to get past this. In my case, my shell (tcsh) defaults to 256. I increase it with a call to "limit descriptors" as shown below. I th

One of our users/friends has also sent us some example code to do this internally - I hope to find the time to include that capability in the code base shortly. I'll advise when we do. On 11/22/06 2:16 PM, "Rolf Vandevaart" wrote: > > Hi Lydia: > > errno 24 means "Too many open files". When

Dear OpenMPI List: OpenMPI 1.2b1 will compile in 32 bit (-arch ppc), but it will not compile in 64 bit (-arch ppc64). So my previous email was about compiling in 64 bit (-arch ppc64) on Mac OSX 10.4. Thanks, Tony Anthony C. Iannetti, P.E. NASA Glenn Research Center P
