Hi Tim,
Thanks for the follow-up

| It should work. However, we currently have some I/O forwarding problems which
| show up in some environments that will (hopefully) be fixed in the next
| release. As far as I know, the problem seems to happen mostly with non-mpi
| applications.
|
| Try running a simple mpi application, such as:
|
| #include <stdio.h>
| #include "mpi.h"
|
| int main(int argc, char* argv[])
| {
| int rank, size;
|
| MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
| MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &rank);
| MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &size);
| printf("Hello, world, I am %d of %d\n", rank, size);
| MPI_Finalize();
|
| return 0;
| }
|
| If that works fine, then it is probably our problem, and not a problem with
| your setup.

That works (and I use the same Debian openmpi 1.2.3-1 set of packages Adam
has):
edd@basebud:~> opalcc -o /tmp/openmpitest /tmp/openmpitest.c -lmpi
edd@basebud:~> orterun -np 4 /tmp/openmpitest
Hello, world, I am 2 of 4
Hello, world, I am 1 of 4
Hello, world, I am 0 of 4
Hello, world, I am 3 of 4
edd@basebud:~>
I was toying with this at work earlier, and it was hanging there (using
hostname or uptime as the token binaries) as soon as I increased the np
parameter beyond 1.
It works here:
edd@basebud:~> orterun -np 4 hostname
basebud
basebud
basebud
basebud
edd@basebud:~>
I have slurm-llnl test packages installed at work but not here. Maybe I need
to a dig a bit more into slurm. (Adam: slurm package should be forthcoming.
I can point you to the snapshots from the fellow whom I mentor on this.)
