[OMPI users] has anybody used the Intel Thread Checker w/OpenMPI?

I'm interested in getting OpenMPI working with a multi-threaded application (MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE is required). I'm trying the trunk from a couple weeks ago (1.3a1r14001) compiled for multi-threading and threaded progress, and have had success with some small cases. Larger cases with the same algo

Hello Curtis, yes, done with ompi-trunk: Apart from --enable-mpi-threads --enable-progress-threads, You need to compile Open MPI with --enable-mca-no-build=memory-ptmalloc2 ; and of course the usual options for debugging (--enable-debug) and the options for icc/ifort/icpc: CFLAGS='-debug all -in

Steve, This list is for supporting Open MPI, not MPICH2 (MPICH2 is an entirely different software package). You should probably redirect your question to their support lists. Thanks, Tim On Mar 23, 2007, at 12:46 AM, Jeffrey Stephen wrote: Hi, I am trying to run an MPICH2 application

I am presently trying to get OpenMPI up and running on a small cluster of MacPros (dual dual-core Xeons) using TCP. Opne MPI was compiled using the intel Fortran Compiler (9.1) and gcc. When I try to launch a job on a remote node, orted starts on the remote node but then times out. I am guessing

Re: [OMPI users] MPI processes swapping out

2007-03-23 Thread George Bosilca
So far the described behavior seems as normal as expected. As Open MPI never goes in blocking mode, the processes will always spin between active and sleep mode. More processes on the same node leads to more time in the system mode (because of the empty polls). There is a trick in the trunk

The main problem with MPI is the huge number of function in the API. Even if we implement only the 1.0 standard we still have several hundreds of functions around. Moreover, an MPI library is far from being a simple self-sufficient library, it requires a way to start and monitor processes,
