Dear OpenMPI List:
>From looking at a recent thread, I see an mpirun command with shared
memory and mx:
mpirun -mca btl mx,sm,self -np 2 pi3f90.x
This works. I may have forgot to mention it, but I am using 1.1.2. I
see there is an -mca mtl in version 1.2b1 . I do not think this exists
in 1.1.2.
Still, I would like to know what -mca is given automatically.
Thanks,
Tony

Subject: MX performance problem on two processor nodes
Dear OpenMPI List:
I am running the Myrinet MX btl with OpenMPI on MacOSX 10.4.
I am running into a problem. When I run on one processor per node,
OpenMPI runs just fine. When I run on two processors per node
(slots=2), it seems to take forever (something is hanging).
Here is the command:
mpirun -mca btl mx,self -np 2 pi3f90.x
However, if I give the command:
mpirun -np 2 pi3f90.x
The process runs normally. But, I do not know if it is using the Myrinet
network. Is there a way to diagnose this problem. mpirun -v and -d do
not seem to indicate which mca is actually being used.
Thanks,
Tony
