Did you put this on /etc/basrhc on all nodes in question? It is usually easier to modify your own personal startup files, such as $HOME/.bashrc, etc. See the OMPI FAQ if you need help picking the right shell startup file for your environment.
You might want to modify your shell startup files and then try running your sample core-dumper program on another node via rsh/ssh and see if you get a corefile. E.g.: shell$ rsh othernode my_core_dumper_app If you don't get a corefile, then something isn't right (e.g., you edited the wrong file, the file isn't being read, the file is exiting early because it's a non-interactive shell, etc.). > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org > [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Adams Samuel > D Contr AFRL/HEDR > Sent: Monday, April 10, 2006 1:06 PM > To: 'Open MPI Users' > Subject: Re: [OMPI users] job running question > > I put in /etc/bashrc and opened a new shell, but I still am > not seeing any > core files. > > Sam Adams > General Dynamics - Network Systems > Phone: 210.536.5945 > > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org > [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On > Behalf Of Pavel Shamis (Pasha) > Sent: Monday, April 10, 2006 8:56 AM > To: Open MPI Users > Subject: Re: [OMPI users] job running question > > Mpirun opens separate shell on each machine/node, so the > "ulimit" will > not be available in new sheel. I think if you will add "ulimit -c > unlimited" to you default shell configuration file (~/.bashrc in BASH > case ant ~/.tcshrc in TCSH/CSH case) you will find your core files :) > > Regards, > Pavel Shamis (Pasha) > > Adams Samuel D Contr AFRL/HEDR wrote: > > I set bash to have unlimited size core files like this: > > > > $ ulimit -c unlimited > > > > But, it was not dropping core files for some reason when I > was running > with > > mpirun.
