Hi, Jeff.  Thanks so very much for all your helps so far.  I decided
that I needed to go back and check whether openmpi even works for
simple cases, so here I am.

So my shell might have exited when it detect that I ran
non-interactively.   But then again, how this parameter
MCA pls: parameter "pls_rsh_agent" (current value: "ssh :rsh")

affect my outcome?  How am I going to set PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
be like those in .bash_profile in my Torque job files?

Could you give me some tips here?

Below is my current bash shell's settings.

Thanks,
Steven.

As you noted later in your mail, this is the key problem: orted is
not found on the remote node.

Notice that you are currently using the rsh launcher, not the Torque
launcher (presumably because you are not inside a Torque job).  What
you want to check is:

rsh node07 which orted

(or use ssh -- whatever is correct for your cluster)

I suspect that orted will not be found, and that you'll need to
modify your shell startup files to set PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH
properly.  Note that some shell startup files will exit early if they
detect that they are running on a non-interactive login.  See http://
www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=running#adding-ompi-to-path for more
details.

Alternatively, you can simply use the absolute pathname to mpirun,
which Open MPI will interpret to mean that you want OMPI to set the
PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the remote node for you.  Something like this:

/usr/local/openmpi-1.2.1/bin/mpirun --host node07 hostname

(note that the "btl" MCA parameter is only relevant for MPI executables)
