Ralph, Thanks! I checked output of "ompi_info" and found that OpenMPI on PowerPC is not built with heterogeneous support. We will rebuild OpenMPI and then try the command you suggested.

I'm not sure what version you are using, but it may well have done it by default. Second, there is an error on your cmd line that is causing the problem. It should read: mpirun -np 1 -host b1 foo_x86 : -np 1 -host b2 foo_ppc The way you wrote it, foo_x86 will run anywhere it wants (which would default to whatever node you were on when you executed this), while foo_ppc will run on both hosts b1 and b2 (which means the first rank will always go on b1).
