Hello , still a bug ???
compil03% /tmp/openmpi-1.3/bin/mpirun -n 1 --wdir /tmp --host
compil03 a.out : -n 1 --host compil02 a.out
Hello world from process 0 of 2
Hello world from process 1 of 2

HANGS

Dear OpenMPI users,
I have the following (problem) related to OpenMPI:
I have recently compiled with OPenMPI the new (4-1)
Global Arrays package using ARMCI_NETWORK=MPI-SPAWN,
which implies the use of dynamic process management
realised in MPI2. It got compiled and tested successfully.
However when it is spawning on different nodes (machine) one
additional process on each node appears, i.e. if nodes=2:ppn=2
then on each node there are 3 running processes. In the case
when it runs just on one pc with a few cores (let say nodes=1:ppn=4),
the number of processes exactly equals the number of cpus (ppn)
requested and there is no additional process.
I am wondering whether it is normal behavior. Thanks!
Best regards,
Evgeniy

Not that I've seen. What version of OMPI are you using, and on what
type of machine/environment?

Dear Ralph,
Thanks for your reply.
I encountered this problem using openmpi-1.2.5,
on a Opteron cluster with Myrinet-mx. I tried for
compilation of Global Arrays different compilers
(gfortran, intel, pathscale), the result is the same.
As I mentioned in the previous message GA itself works
fine, but the application which uses it doesn't work
correctly if it runs on several nodes. If it runs on
one node with several cores everything is fine. So I
thought that the problem might be in this additional
process.
Should I try to use the latest 1.3 version of openmpi?
Best,
Evgeniy

If you can, 1.3 would certainly be a good step to take. I'm not sure
why 1.2.5 would be behaving this way, though, so it may indeed be
something in the application (perhaps in the info key being passed to
us?) that is the root cause.
Still, if it isn't too much trouble, moving to 1.3 will provide you
with a better platform for dynamic process management regardless.

This is now fixed in the trunk and will be in the 1.3.1 release.
Thanks again for the heads-up!

FWIW, I have run with my LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to a combination of
multiple OMPI installations; it ended up using the leftmost entry in
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (as I intended). I'm not quite sure why it
wouldn't do that for you. :-(

Hi
I have a small cluster consisting of 9 computers (8x2 CPUs, 1x4 CPUs).
I would like to be able to observe the output of the processes
separately during an mpirun.
What i currently do is to apply the mpirun to a shell script which
opens a xterm for each process,
which then starts the actual application.
This works, but is a bit complicated, e.g. finding the window you're
interested in among 19 others.
So i was wondering is there a possibility to capture the processes'
outputs separately, so
i can make an application in which i can switch between the different
processor outputs?
I could imagine that could be done by wrapper applications which
redirect the output over a TCP
socket to a server application.
But perhaps there is an easier way, or something like this alread
does exist?
Thank You
Jody
