Hi Daofeng It is hard to tell what is happening in the Infiniband side of the problem. Did somebody perhaps remove the Infiniband card from this machine? Was it ever there? Did somebody perhaps changed the Linux kernel modules that are loaded (perhaps changing /etc/module.config or similar)? Maybe other people in your organization know.
If this is a single computer, not a cluster, you don't loose anything by not having Infinband. In this case, you can reinstall OpenMPI without Infiniband support, by just doing "make distclean" in the OpenMPI build directory (to cleanup what is there), then "./configure --prefix=/wherever/you/want/to/install --without-openib", then "make", and "make install". Alternatively, you can continue to use what you already have with the "-mca btl ^openib" flag. If this is a cluster, of course you would benefit from Infiniband, which is a faster network than Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet. In this case you need to ask for help of somebody that knows more about your cluster hardware, to restore the Infiniband to a sane and healthy state. Or, if there is no Infinband hardware, or if it is broken, just reinstall OpenMPi following the little recipe above. You will be able to run your programs using Ethernet (I assume the cluster would have Ethernet). Not very fast, but will work.
