Very interesting topic. :) >I see MX rather than tcp-level connections between clusters being >tried, which across clusters fails in mx_connect/mx_isend (at the >moment there is no inter-cluster support in MX itself). Besides "mx", >I do include "tcp" in the network option lists of course. It seems that the BTL does not realize that the two Myrinets are not connected. We are currently working on getting the handling of all cases with different TCP/IP networks right (public IPv4, private IPv4, IPv6), but to my knowledge nobody has done a detailed evaluation on Open MPI in multi-domain clusters with mixed networks (TCP+MX, TCP+IB, ...) yet. -Christian -- Dipl.-Inf.
