Hi, I have tried this. But, the printout from 200 parallel processes make it very hard to locate the possible bug. They may not stop at the same point when the program got signal 9. So, even though I can figure out the print out statements from all200 processes, so many different locations where the processesare stopped make it harder to find out some hints about the bug. Are there some other programming tricks, which can help me narrow down to the doubt points ASAP.Any help is appreciated.

Try adding some print statements so you can see where the error occurs. On Mar 25, 2011, at 11:49 PM, Jack Bryan wrote:Hi , All: I running a Open MPI (1.3.4) program by 200 parallel processes.

The system will generate SIGKILL for a process itself under some unusual conditions where the program cannot possibly continue to run (even to run a signal handler). But, the error message does not indicate any possible reasons for the termination. There is a FOR loop in the main() program, if the loop number is small (< 200), the program works well, but if it becomes lager and larger, the program will got SIGKILL. The cluster where I am running the MPI program does not allow running debug tools. If I run it on a workstation, it will take a very very long time (for > 200 loops) in order to get the error occur again. What can I do to find the possible bugs ? Any help is really appreciated. thanks Jack _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users
