Hi Gus, I have digressed and started downward descent...
I was trying to make a simple and clear case. Everything I write in this very mail is about local machines. There is no virtual machines involved. I am talking about two machines, vixen and dasher, which share the same file structure. Vixen is a nfs server and dasher is an nfs client. I have just installed openmpi 1.4.3 on dasher, which is the same version I have on vixen. I have a file app.ac3, which looks like: [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ cat app.ac3 -H dasher.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname -H dasher.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname -H vixen.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname -H vixen.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ Vixen can run this without any problem: [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ mpirun -app app.ac3 vixen.egcrc.org vixen.egcrc.org dasher.egcrc.org dasher.egcrc.org [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ But I can't run this very command from dasher: [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ [tsakai@vixen Rmpi]$ ssh dasher Last login: Sun Feb 13 19:26:57 2011 from vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@dasher ~]$ [tsakai@dasher ~]$ cd Notes/R/parallel/Rmpi/ [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ mpirun -app app.ac3 mpirun: killing job... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process that caused that situation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpirun was unable to cleanly terminate the daemons on the nodes shown below. Additional manual cleanup may be required - please refer to the "orte-clean" tool for assistance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- vixen.egcrc.org - daemon did not report back when launched [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ After I issue the mpirun command, it hangs and I had to Cntrol-C out of it at which point it generated all lines " mpirun: killing job..." and below. A strange thing is that dahser has no problem executing the same thing via ssh: [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ ssh vixen.egcrc.org hostname vixen.egcrc.org [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ In fact, dasher can run it via mpirun so long as no foreign machine is present in the app file. Ie., [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ cat app.ac4 -H dasher.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname -H dasher.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname # -H vixen.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname # -H vixen.egcrc.org -np 1 hostname [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ mpirun -app app.ac4 dasher.egcrc.org dasher.egcrc.org [tsakai@dasher Rmpi]$ Can you please tell me why I can go one way (from vixen to dasher) and not the other way (dasher to vixen)? Thank you.
