Hi Tim, Hmmmm, nope. I recompiled OpenMPI to produce the static libs, and even recompiled my app statically, and received the same error messages.
If orted isn't starting on the compute nodes, is there any way I can debug this to find out where it is failing? Actually, I just tried your suggestion of running ldd on one of the compute nodes (should've tried this before recompiling, I guess...). I get a strange error, which probably indicates a problem with bproc: ldd /usr/local/intel-libs/9.0/bin/orted /proc/self/fd/3: line 125: cat: command not found I know I've run ldd on a node before without problems before.... I don't know if this is related to my OpenMPI problems, but I'm going to have to look into it.
