[OMPI users] [openMPI-infiniband] openMPI in IB network when openSM with LASH is running

2007-11-28 Thread Keshetti Mahesh
Has anyone in the list ever tested openMPI in infiniband network in which openSM is running with LASH routing algorithm enabled? I haven't tested the above case but i could foresee a problem because LASH routing algorithm in openSM uses virtual lanes (VL) which are directly mapped with service lev

Hello Guys, When is the version 1.3 scheduled to be released? As it would contain checkpointing, library for non-blocking communication, ConnectX for QP's, it would be great to have it ASAP. Since i am evaluating MVAPICH against OpenMPI, i found that MVAPICH still has upper hand in terms of

This is to be expected. OMPI's support for THREAD_MULTIPLE is incomplete and most likely doesn't work. On Nov 25, 2007, at 6:45 PM, Emilio J. Padron wrote: Hi, it's my fist message here so greetings to everyone (and sorry about my poor english) :-) I'm coding a parallel algorithm and I've

Well, that's odd. What happens if you try to mpirun "hostname" (i.e., a non-MPI application)? Does it run, or does it hang? On Nov 23, 2007, at 6:00 AM, Madireddy Samuel Vijaykumar wrote: I have been using using clusters for some tests. My localhost "lynx" and i have "puma" and "tiger" wh

There is work starting literally right about now to allow Open MPI to use the RDMA CM and/or the IBCM for creating OpenFabrics connections (IB or iWARP). On Nov 28, 2007, at 4:37 AM, Keshetti Mahesh wrote: Has anyone in the list ever tested openMPI in infiniband network in which openSM is

Roland thought that the default value of 10 might be a bit too low and that tuning it to be higher, particularly in apps that pound on a single port, would probably be acceptable. Tuning up to 20 is probably a bit overkill. On Nov 27, 2007, at 3:54 PM, Jeff Squyres wrote: BTW, Andrew is c

v1.3's schedule is being developed right now -- it was a little hard to hear on the teleconference yesterday, but I think I heard Brad Benton from IBM (one of the two Release Managers for the v1.3 series) say that he'd have a plan for review by the group next week. So far, I've been [wildly

For what it's worth Andrew, the RETRY_EXCEEDED_ERRORS can be caused by flaky hardware as well. The timeout value is probably best tuned relative to the size of your IB fabric. But if reliability is the biggest criteria, crank up the timemout value to 20. That's the best you can do. If it contin

If your F77 compiler do not support array of LOGICAL variables (which seems to be the case if you look in the config.log file), then you're left with only one option. Remove the F77 support from the compilation. This means adding the --disable-mpi-f77 option to the ./ configure. Thanks,

That's what's supposed to happen, it's how MPI works. Process 0 is the head or boss process, and the others are slaves, and execute partially different code even though they're in the same executable. MPI is multi-process, not multi-thread. Damien Henry Adolfo Lambis Miranda wrote: Hi ever

Henry, Apologies ahead of time for any unintended insults, but... Your "a.out" sounds like it is not truly a parallel code. If you submit a hello_world program using OpenMPI's mpirun, you will simply get two copies of "Hello World" printed to the screen. If you want the work shar
