[OMPI users] LAM/MPI -> OpenMPI

2015-02-27 Thread Sasso, John (GE Power & Water, Non-GE)
Unfortunately, we have a few apps which use LAM/MPI instead of OpenMPI (and this is something I have NO control over). I have been making an effort to try and convince those who handle such apps to move over to LAM/MPI as it is (as I understand it) no longer supported and end-of-life. In fac

Hi Syed This really sounds as a problem specific to Rocks Clusters, not an issue with Open MPI. A confusion related to mount points, and soft links used by Rocks. I haven't used Rocks Clusters in a while, and I don't remember the details anymore, so please take my suggestions with a grain of sal

Hi Syed Ahsan Ali To avoid any leftovers and further confusion, I suggest that you delete completely the old installation directory. Then start fresh from the configure step with the prefix pointing to --prefix=/share/apps/openmpi-1.8.4_gcc-4.9.2 I hope this helps, Gus Correa On 02/27/2015 12:1
