This message is telling you that you have run out of file descriptors. I am surprised that the -mca parameter setting did not fix the problem. Can you run limit or ulimit on your shell and send the information? I typically set my limit to 65536 assuming the system allows it.

burl-16 58 =>limit descriptors
descriptors     65536
burl-16 59 =>

bash-3.00$ ulimit -n
65536
bash-3.00$

Thanks for the fast answer !

I've done : limit descriptors 1024  (csh style)
And that's working fine. I took the linux descriptors by default.

Thanks again,

Yann

Hello all,

I'm using hpc8.2 :
Lidia-jobic% ompi_info
Displaying Open MPI information for 32-bit ...
                Package: ClusterTools 8.2
               Open MPI: 1.3.3r21324-ct8.2-b09j-r40
[...]

And i've got a X4600 machine (8*4 cores).

When i'm trying to run a 32 processor jobs, i've got :

Lidia-jobic% mpiexec --mca opal_set_max_sys_limits 1 -n 32 ./exe
[Lidia:29384] [[61597,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: The system limit on number of pipes a process can open was reached in file base/iof_base_setup.c at line 112 [Lidia:29384] [[61597,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: The system limit on number of pipes a process can open was reached in file odls_default_module.c at line 203 [Lidia:29384] [[61597,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: The system limit on number of network connections a process can open was reached in file oob_tcp.c at line 446 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Error: system limit exceeded on number of network connections that can be open

This can be resolved by setting the mca parameter opal_set_max_sys_limits to 1, increasing your limit descriptor setting (using limit or ulimit commands),
or asking the system administrator to increase the system limit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried the ulimit, the mca parameter, i've got no idea of where to look at.
I've got the same computer under linux, and it's working fine...

Have you seen it ?
Do you know a way to bypass it ?

Many thanks,

Yann
