Hi, I am trying to run simple mpirun commands (pretty much straight out of mpirun man page) and getting a bit of error message. Here’s what I mean:
[tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ hostname vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ mpirun -H blitzen -np 1 hostname stty: standard input: Invalid argument blitzen.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname : -H blitzen -np 1 hostname stty: standard inputvixen.egcrc.org blitzen.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ : Invalid argument [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname : -H blitzen -np 1 hostname 2> stdErr vixen.egcrc.org blitzen.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ cat stdErr stty: standard input: Invalid argument [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ ssh -l tsakai blitzen Last login: Wed Jan 12 15:41:59 2011 from vixen.egcrc.org Platform OCS Frontend Node - Blitzen Cluster Platform OCS 4.5.1 (Flintstone) Profile built 11:01 10-Jul-2008 Kickstarted 11:02 10-Jul-2008 [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ hostname blitzen.egcrc.org [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ mpirun -H blitzen -np 1 hostname blitzen.egcrc.org [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname stty: standard inputvixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ : Invalid argument [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname : -H blitzen -np 1 hostname stty: standard inputblitzen.egcrc.org vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ : Invalid argument [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ mpirun -H vixen -np 1 hostname : -H blitzen -np 1 hostname 2> stdErr blitzen.egcrc.org vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ cat stdErr stty: standard input: Invalid argument [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ [tsakai@blitzen ~]$ exit logout [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ I am using two hosts: vixen and blitzen. It appears that when a machine other than the one I am on it is specified via –H flag, I get “stty: standard input: Invalid argument” message to stderr. It doesn’t seem to impeed the execution of the command (in my example, hostname), though. Can somebody please tell me what this means and what it takes to cure the problem? Thank you.
