Hello Tim,

Thanks for the info. I also received this help from Myrinet:


************
It looks like you are running out of endpoints.

This discusses what endpoints are:
 http://www.myri.com/cgi-bin/fom.pl?file=421 

And this explains how to increase the limit:
 http://www.myri.com/cgi-bin/fom.pl?file=482

Let us know if this doesn't address the problem.
************

I haven't had time to look into it.
