Hi,
I have kept doing my own investigation and recompiled OpenMPI to have
only the barebones functionality with no support for any interconnects
other than ethernet:
# rpmbuild --rebuild --define="configure_options
--prefix=/opt/openmpi/1.1.4" --define="install_in_opt 1"
--define="mflags all" openmpi-1.1.4-1.src.rpm
The error detailed in my previous message persisted, which eliminates
the possibility of interconnect support interfering with ethernet
support. Here's an excerpt from ompi_info:
# ompi_info
Open MPI: 1.1.4
Open MPI SVN revision: r13362
Open RTE: 1.1.4
Open RTE SVN revision: r13362
OPAL: 1.1.4
OPAL SVN revision: r13362
Prefix: /opt/openmpi/1.1.4
Configured architecture: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
. . .
Thread support: posix (mpi: no, progress: no)
Internal debug support: no
MPI parameter check: runtime
. . .
MCA btl: self (MCA v1.0, API v1.0, Component v1.1.4)
MCA btl: sm (MCA v1.0, API v1.0, Component v1.1.4)
MCA btl: tcp (MCA v1.0, API v1.0, Component v1.0)
Again, to replicate the error, I ran
# mpirun -hostfile ~/testdir/hosts --mca btl tcp,self ~/testdir/hello
In this case, you can even omit the runtime mca param specifications:
# mpirun -hostfile ~/testdir/hosts ~/testdir/hello
Thanks for reading this. I hope I've provided enough information.
Sincerely,
Alex.

Hello,
I have tried a very basic test on a 2 node "cluster" consisting of 2
dell boxes. One of them is dual CPU Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz with
1GB of RAM and the slave node is quad-CPU Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU
3.40GHz with 2GB of RAM. Both have Infiniband cards and Gig-E. The
slave node is connected directly to the headnode.
OpenMPI version 1.1.4 was compiled with support for the following
btl's: openib,mx,gm, and mvapi. I got it to work over openib, but,
ironically, the same trivial hello world job fails over tcp (please
see the log below). I found that the same problem was already
discussed on this list here:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2006/06/1347.php
The discussion mentioned that there could be something wrong with the
TCP setup of the nodes. Unfortunately it was taken offline. Could
someone help me with this?
Thanks,
Alex.
