Do you see "rsh" or "ssh" in the output of "ps -eadf" when mpirun is
hanging, perchance? If you, what happens if you copy-n-paste those
command lines and run them manually?
No, I don't see either rsh or ssh when mpirun is hanging. Is that odd?
Something I'm doing wrong?
I only see an mpirun command and an orted command.
rwan 22800 22761 0 09:52 pts/2 00:00:00 mpirun --host X,Y,Z --np 3
sleep 1000
rwan 22804 1 0 09:52 ? 00:00:00 orted --bootproxy 1 --name 0.0.2 --num_procs 4

Actually, when I run the above mpirun command, I don't see "sleep" running
locally on machine Y, either. However, if I did this:
mpirun --host Y --np 3 sleep 1000
I see 3 instances of "sleep" when I do ps -aedf. Does mpirun try to "ssh" all networked
machines first before it starts the program (even if one of those instances will run locally?). Perhaps
unrelated...but when I am on Y and I do an rsh to Z, I get a "No route to host". I asked the
sysadmin about it (I'm not the sysadmin of Y or Z) and he doesn't know why but as we should be using ssh
anyway, he isn't going to address the problem (unless it is a side-effect of my mpirun problem). I only
presume rsh hasn't been set up properly; ssh works fine, though.
Thank you!
Ray
