Thanks brian,
  I shall download alpha 8 and upgrade. I have few more questions. 

  1)Are there simple ways to upgrade, or shall i start from scratch?


  2)Pls look at the following error message.

  P= 14 NA= 0 RF--> 16
  P=10 RN=53
  P= 10 NA= 53 RF--> 8

  mpirun noticed that job rank 3 with PID 5621 on node "Neelw4" exited on 
signal 11.
  -----------------------------
  I run the 25 processes, each having a thread that makes MPI calls along  with 
its main thread. I use THREAD_MULTIPLE option. I am registering a  function to 
catch SIGALRM signal in the thread. Each thread catches the  signal after some 
time and terminates normally. This is also as the  same problem as the previous 
one, sometimes error message comes, and  some times it wont. 
  What could be the problem??

  3) None of the threads(even main thread) were catching SIGINT.

  4) Is there any way to make the threads catch signal without creating 
problems, as i faced above?

  5)Is there any tool available to wipe out all process across the nodes.? like 
lamclean or wipe . Anything will u suggest?

  Thanks and regards,

  Imran

We just released alpha 8, which should include a fix for a problem  
that sounds very similar to what you are seeing.  Can you try  
upgrading and see if that solves your problem?

We don't currently have a good way of dealing with this.  You can get  
lots of debugging information from the -d option to mpirun, but it  
would be difficult to get exactly what you are looking for from the  
debugging output.

Your best bet would probably be to use gethostname() and MPI_Comm_rank 
() inside your MPI application and print the results to stdout / stderr.
